Chords

[Chords:] G - C - A7 - D7 [Verse I]
G                 C 
I know there's a lotta talk going around today

         A7                            D7
About cigarette smoking whittling your life away

G                 C 
I've seen it and I've heard it so many times

         A7                            D7
That finally it just started to prey on my mind

G                 C 
I guess it scared me a little bit

         A7                            D7
That's why I decided I was gonna quit

G                 C 
So while I was sitting here forming my battle plan

         A7                            D7
I took another puff and turned on the fan

G                 C 
I just sat there in my easy chair

         A7                            D7
And thought of all the money I'd wasted on cigarettes all these years

G                 C 
I thought how I'd spend the rest of my days

         A7                            D7
After I kick this habit my body craves

G                 C 
Said to myself this ain't gonna be so tough

A7                       D7
With that little bit of assurance
(No chord) I took another puff
G            C                   A7             D7
I took a puff, a puff, then I ripped off another puff

G                 C 
I decided I'd about had about enough

               A7                     D7
That breaking this habit won't be too tough
[Verse II]
G                 C 
Now I've give a lot of thought to this thing

         A7                            D7
If I didn't smoke cigarettes I'd feel just like a king

G                 C 
Besides with the price going up every day

         A7                            D7
I knew I was just throwing all my good money away

G                 C 
You know I ain't lit one in an hour or so?

         A7                            D7
Just wanted to make sure I could quit you know

G                 C 
I was thinking maybe I oughta write all this down

         A7                            D7
Put it in a song kinda circulate it around

G                 C 
Can't ever tell it might make a hit

         A7                            D7
And that redneck Hall did a little bit

G                 C 
Can you imagine me a hit songwriter!

         A7                            D7
Now where's... Where'd I put that cigarette lighter?

G                 C 
After all it's a habit and a habit you can break

         A7                            D7
Just a little bit of willpower son that's all it takes
I said to myself you got to be tough!
         A7                            D7
And with that little bit of wisdom
(No chord) I took another puff
G                 C 
I took a puff, and then a puff, 

         A7                            D7
then I finally ripped off another puff

G                 C 
And I decided boy this ain't gonna be tough

         A7                            D7
Besides I'd just about had enough
[Verse III]
G                 C 
I'm about ready to quit this rotten habit anyway

G                 C            A7                            D7

A7                            D7

G                 C            A7                            D7

G                 C            A7                            D7
Oh give it to me! Give it to me!

G                 C            A7                            D7
Cigarettes... I say if I quit smoking what'll I do?

G                 C

A7                            D7

G                 C            A7                            D7

A7                            D7
Oh my throat's scratchin', oh

G                 C
