[Dm] [C]
[Bb] [C]
[F] [C] Oh yeah!
I was once out strolling one very hot [F] summer's day,
[C] when I thought I'd lay myself down to rest in a big tall field of mitchellic corn grass. Yaree-rah!
[Bb] [C]
[G] [C] [G] As [C] I lay there in the [F] shade, [C] I felt the heat of the day [F] caressing my [C] body,
as my mind, my mind, flew away, away, [F] away, [C] yeah!
[Bb] I was taken [C] to a place, [F] [C] [Bb] a hall [C] of a mountain [F] pin,
[Bb] stood high [C] upon a [Bb] mountain top, [C] [Bb] naked to the [E] world,
[Bb] front row, [C] [Bb] every castle, there was a [C] long ones, tall [Bb] ones,
big white, brown ones, [C] black ones, red [Bb] ones,
[C] [A] and a lady, [C] [Bb] [C] of the middle, came a lady, whispered in my [F] ear, [C] something crazy,
[F] she said, I found it!
[C] Skoo [Bb]-wah, get [Cm] that girl!
[C]
[Cm]
[C]
I [F] thought to myself, [C] hmm,
[F] I wonder what the hell that means?
[C]
[Dm] Am I going [C] crazy, baby?
[F] [C]
Or is this just another [F] psychedelic dream?
[C]
When I woke up in [F] the morning, [C] yeah!
[F] [C] Damn tough, [Bb] [C]
way out, [F] [C]
you know, [F] [C]
I reached Mexico City about 3 o'clock in the afternoon,
[Bb] [C] Chapultepec, the heart of [F] the metropolis,
[C]
[Bb] I drove [C] around the plaza for about three or four times,
and then [F] I saw her standing in the [Bb] street corner with long [C] black [Bbm] hair,
[C] all the way down to her ass, and big brown [F] eyes,
[C] I pulled her, took her by the sidewalk,
[F] I [C]
walked straight up to that girl, and I said in my very best Espanol,
I said, baby!
She said, what you want, gringo?
I said, baby, [F] I'm [C] a man with a plan,
I came [F] 6 [C],000 miles to see one thing [F] before I [C] die,
and I think you can help me with my [F] plan.
[C]
She said, well, spit it out, gringo.
[F] I [C] said, baby, I want to see one thing before it passes away,
before the DEA, the FBI, and AFT shut it down,
I want to see one field of marijuana growing in [F] the wild.
[C]
[F]
[C] She said, no [F] problemo, gringo.
[Bb] So [C] we grow for [Dm] three days and three [C] nights,
we had to leave the truck [Bb] behind, it broke [C]
down,
we had to go the rest of the way by burro, burro, burro, burro, [F] burro.
[C]
[Gm] [C]
[F] The [C]
evening of the fourth day,
we were high on this mountain top above Oaxaca,
it was freezing [Bb] cold,
[C] I took my Navajo blanket, I wrapped it around that little girl,
and we tossed and we turned all night,
and I'm [F] thinking to myself, [C]
still no sign of marijuana.
It was at this point in [F] time,
[C] I realized I had brought one joint of really good bud along with me
from Los Angeles, was in my wallet for such an [Bbm] occasion,
[C]
and I [Bb] wasn't going to [C] share the motherfucker [Bb] with nobody. Hey!
[C]
[Fm] [C]
I crept away from the campsite,
[F] [C]
[F] [C]
I could feel someone behind me,
I turned around,
[E] [D]
[Dm] [C] the Navajo blanket [Bb] slid [C] slowly to the Mexican dust,
she stood naked before me.
It was at this point in time,
I remembered I brought along a little pot of honey from the Chapultepec Hilton,
I took the honey out of my saddlebag, I unscrewed the honey,
I dipped my finger in the honey,
[Bb] I looked at that [C] young girl and I went,
Ooh!
Ah!
[F] [Cm]
She took [C] me by the [F] hand,
[C]
and we strolled hand in hand [F] through the marijuana fields.
[C] [F] This is the interesting [C] part, art students,
[F] all of that [C] green musty stuff did rub off on the strategic [Bb] points of our [C] party.
What could I do?
I went down on my [F] [C] knees,
between her breasts,
and I went, blub-blub-blub-blub-blub-blub.
[F] [C]
I stood up and watched [F] the rising sun,
[Bb] and I said to [C] myself,
I'm free, I'm white, I'm 21,
and [Bb] I ain't [C] never comin' back.. Ah!
[Bb] [C]
you are [Bb] [G] the best bird, [C] you are the best bird, you are [Bb] the [D] best bird, you are the [C] best bird, when he takes [Bb] [C] you in his arms, [D] you will [C] [Bb] [C]
