Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G]

[Verse 1]
Green hickorywood will [C]make
your fireplace [G]hot
You try [Am]to explain to a [A]Berkeley [D]cop
[G]He choked with with my peats[C]
and shot me down for [G]pot
I said, [A]man I'm clean,
I'm just about to blow my [D]top
[G]They finally took me in[C]
for possession [G]of...
[Em]Love and [A]my pocket knife
But [D]I swear to God I was
only [G]high on life
High on [C]livin', [G]high on lov[D]in'[G]
High [C]on livin', [G]high on lovin,' and
lov[D]in' and [G]forgivin'
I have no suit [C]lapel in which to
hold my [G]flower[Am][D]
I said [G]Lord, that's okay man
It's [C]just the lateness of the [G]hour
Well [A]I be clean when
heaven lets if [D]shower
[G]They finally took me in[C]
for possession [G]of...
[Em]Love and [A]my pocket knife
But [D]I swear to God I was
only [G]high on life
High on [C]livin', [G]high on lov[D]in'[G]
High on [C]livin',
[G]high on lovin,' and lov[D]in' and [G]forgivin'
High on [C]livin', [G]high on lov[D]in'[G]
High on [C]livin',
[G]high on lovin,' and lov[D]in' and [G]forgivin'
High on [C]livin', [G]high on lov[D]in'[G]
High on [C]livin',
[G]high on lovin,' and lovin' and forgivin'
