I Dont Smoke

James Droll


Tom: Em

Em C


[Verse 1]
            Em                  C
I can't say no, but why would I want to
               Em                  C
You'll get too close, I started to stop you
   B7                    C
If love is supposed to be easy
     B7                    C
Then how did we break it so easily
       Em                     C
All my chap-stick tastes like whiskey
        Em                      C
See, my chapped lips say you'll miss me
         B7                  C
Save the receipts before you kiss me
         B7             C
Hide the tax before you kill me


[Chorus]
         Am           D7
I know I said I'd get clean
           Em                     C
But that's one thing I just can't do
        Am           D7
Cause I smoke when I drink
      Em                       C
And I drink when I think about you
       C            D7          Em
I only smoke when I drink about you

[Verse 2]
    Em                          C
You never take a shot without a chaser
        Em                     C
I'm the only one who likes the flavor
       B7                   C
If I'm less than two you're greater
           B7           C
And you're only good on paper
          Em              C
Why'd you touch me in the first place?
        Em              C
Now I'm settled back in last place
    B7                           C
The city's getting bigger with a fast pace
           B7                          C
But you're moving too fast to run your rat-race


[Chorus]
         Am           D7
I know I said I'd get clean
           Em                     C
But that's one thing I just can't do
        Am           D7
Cause I smoke when I drink
      Em                       C
And I drink when I think about you
       C            D7          Em
I only smoke when I drink about you
