[Verse 1]
A D** A**
Well, way out in the country is a real fine place to be,
A E
barreling down some backroad in god knows where Tennessee.
A D** A**
But mind you it's illegal there to smoke that sticky green.
A E** A
I’m gonna need to be real careful fore that officer busts me.
[Chorus]
D A
And I said: sir, now don’t you know it’s just a long green cigarette.
A E
Well, I’ve see you smoke yourself you’ve got that box of Marlboro Reds.
A D** A**
Ain’t nothing illegal 'bout tobacco now is there.
A E** A A
Said me oh my oh me it’s just a long green cigarette.
[Verse 2]
A D** A**
Well, the cop, he just won't buy it, he hardly seems amused
A E
and, frankly, I just hope he smells the pot and not the booze.
A D** A**
Behind me in the seat sits 8 or 10-odd open brews.
A E** A** A7**
Well, I'd spend my next few years sat in the county institute.
[Chorus]
D A
And I said: sir, now don’t you know it’s just a long green cigarette.
A E
Well, I’ve see you smoke yourself you’ve got that box of Marlboro Reds.
A D** A**
Ain’t nothing illegal 'bout tobacco now is there.
A E** A
Said me oh my oh me it’s just a long green cigarette.

[Verse 3]
A D** A**
Though surely unconvinced the officer he let us go.
A E* E*
Friends, I’d say with certainty that this here goes to show.
A* D* A*
Better hope the cop pulls you over is pretty slow,
E* A* A7*
if you’re smoking and a drinking on some Tennessee backroad.
[End-Chorus]
D A
And I said: sir, now don’t you know it’s just a long green cigarette.
A E
Well, I’ve see you smoke yourself you’ve got that box of Marlboro Reds.
A D** A**
Ain’t nothing illegal 'bout tobacco now is there.
A E** A
Said me oh my oh me it’s just a long green cigarette,
E** A E* A* E* A* E* A*
just a long green cigarette, just a long green cigarette.
