(intro) Emadd9

(verse 1)
             Am9                           Emadd9
Registration starts at 8, don't be late or else
                   Am9                              Emadd9
That's 8 as in the evening time, classes begin around 9 or 12
                     Am9
We'll study each and every flower, per credit hour
    Cmaj7                       G
Then all devour a box of krispy kreme

(pre-chorus)
                    B7        F#
So if you grow your knowledge tree
B7
hydroponically
                                                       Em7
Then come with me, it is, it is, it is, to cannabis college

(chorus)
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa

(verse 2)
                   Am7
Instead of writing boring papers
                                              Em7
You'll be rolling all your tests and all your quizzes
                        Am7                             Em7
You'll be curing common glaucoma, convinced that you're acing physics
                          Am7                             Cmaj7
You'll be setting quite a fine example, coring apples and carving cans
                       G
You passed your first exam

(pre-chorus)
                    B7        F#
So if you take your notes and tokes
   B7
Of signals made of smoke
                                        Em7
No joke it is, off you go to cannabis college
    B7              F#               B7                  F#
And in the basement lavatory they're teaching short-term memory
    B7                                                    Em7
Can anybody tell me where they're teaching short-term memory?

(chorus)
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa

(interlude/scat) Am7  Em7  Am7  B7

(verse 3)
                        Am7                                    Em7
Tell me have you met professor chong, he's been here who knows how long
                   Am7                                         Em7
His lectures often cover all the classics, from northern cal to oregon
                         Am7
Throughout the days it's dr dre from the payphone era
                                       Cmaj7
Of the dark side of the moon, and it's purple haze
                                     G
And some random acid tracks by patrick boone

(pre-chorus)
      B7    F#    B7
With thc, phds, a ba in euphoria
  B7           F#   B7
Avoid the military, minoring in paranoia
B7          F#                B7
Job offers aplenty we got our gpas at 4 point 20
B7                F#         B7
  get the blunted edge, a certificate that says
                     Em7
I made it through college

(chorus)
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    B7
La la laa laa la la la laa
                    Em7
La la laa laa la la la laa

(repeat chorus until end)
