Verse 1
C 
Well, I'll be the first one to admit, 
C 
I've prob'ly lost a year of s*x 
C                                  G 
Spendin' too much time out in the bar 
G 
Way back in my younger days 
G 
I'd drink a week or two away 
G                                   C 
But I got older 'n had a change of heart. 
C 
One night I put that bottle down, 
C 
Took a good long look around, 
C                              F 
Paid my tab and headed on back home 
G 
My liver'd reached the breaking point, 
G 
So I sat down and rolled a joint, 
G                      F             C 
Said it's time I went back to bein' stoned. 
 
Chorus
F           G             C 
You may not agree with my choices, 
F                   G            C 
'Cause I ain't had a hangover in years. 
F                    G              C                     F 
And I ain't missed a day of work, or forgotten what I've done, 
F                                     G 
Like I did a time or two from drinki' beer. 
F                  G             C 
It's been easier to save a little money 
F                        G                 C 
'Cause it ain't all that hard to grow your own, 
F                         G               C 
And it sure don't seem to hurt ole Willie Nelson, 
F                 G             C 
So I just went on back to bein' stoned. 
 
Verse 2
C 
To this day I haven't seen anybody smokin weed 
C                                    G 
Want to walk out the parking lot and fight. 
G 
We ain't there to run our mouth, 
G 
The only thing we care about, 
G                                   C 
Is what buffet we're eatin' at tonight. 
C 
We move at a slower pace, 
C 
Life ain't meant to be a race. 
C                               F 
One day we'll all be played (?) back home 
G 
So when you see this perma-grin 
G 
You'll know exactly where I've been 
G                    F             C 
Since the day I went back to bein' stoned 
 
Chorus
F           G             C 
You may not agree with my choices, 
F                   G            C 
'Cause I ain't had a hangover in years. 
F                    G              C                    F 
And I ain't missed a day of work, or forgotten what I've done, 
F                                     G 
Like I did a time or two from drinki' beer. 
F                   G             C 
It's been easier to save a little money 
F                        G                 C 
'Cause it ain't all that hard to grow your own, 
F                         G               C 
And it sure don't seem to hurt ole Willie Nelson, 
F                 G             C 
So I just went on back to bein' stoned. 
 
Outro
F                   G              C 
Yeh, I just went on back to being' stoned 
F    C 
(Amen, pass those nachos over here)
