I Must Have Good Terbaccy When I Smoke by Slim Dusty
I Must Have Good Terbaccy When I Smoke

Bm A D
D A D
I was talking to a swaggy yesterday
G D
His beard was long his hair was silver grey
A D
His dress was out of style but he wore a friendly smile
Bm A D
And here is what the old man had to say
D A D
“You may think me most unusual my boy
G D
When I tell you straight that I am stony broke
A D
I tramp from year to year and I’ll drink all kinds of beer
Bm A D
But I like to have good 'baccy when I smoke"
D A D
Now I’ll show you this here old terbacco tin
G D
The paint is gone the sides are dinted in
A D
But it’s opened many a bottle in its wild and chequered life
Bm A D
And to me it has always been a friend
[Yodel] D A D

Bm A D
D A D
I one time had a wife and everything
A D
But a stranger came and soon we were apart
A D
So I left my friends and home and I hit the road to roam
Bm A D
But nicotine has mended my old heart
D A D
I’ve got no use for money in my life
G D
You strive and struggle till it gets you down
A D
I tramp until I lag and then I’ll drop my swag
Bm A D
And I’ll sit and smoke and watch the world go 'round
D A D
When finally I reach the golden gates
G D
They say St Peter he’s a decent bloke
A D
If I’m taken with the blessed this will be my last request
Bm A D
I must have good terbaccy when I smoke
D A D
Yes I was talking to that swaggy yesterday
G D
And what he told me I’ll remember clear
A D
Trampin’ out there with the breeze happy as the birds and bees
Bm A D
And I reckon that he has the right idea.
