A
I was sitting in my basement 
I just rolled myself a taste of something
E                                                 A
green and gold and glorious to get me through the day.
Then my friend yelled through the transom, 
"grab your coat and get your hat son
          E                                           A
There's a nut down on the corner, givin' dollar bills away."
      E
But I sat around a bit and then
E
Had another hit and then
E
Rolled myself a bauma
E
Thought about my mama
E
Looked around
E
Fooled around
E
Played around a while and then
  
Chorus:
      A
I got stoned and I missed it
      A
I got stoned and I missed it
      E                              A
I got stoooooned and it rolled right by
      A
I got stoned and I missed it
      A
I got stoned and I missed it
      E                   A
I got stoooooned oh me oh my
   
Verse:
A
Now it took seven months of urging just to get that local virgin
         E                                          A
With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit.
Next day she woke up rosy and she snuggled up so cozy
         A                                          E
When she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit
  
Chorus:
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      E                              A
I was stoooooned and it rolled right by
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      E                   A
I was stoooooned oh me oh my

Verse:
A
Now I ain't makin' no excuses for the many things I uses
        E                                           A
Just to brighten my relationships and sweeten up my day.
But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover
         E                                                A
And they ask me how my life has been I guess I'll have to say.
  
Chorus:
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      E                              A
I was stoooooned and it rolled right by
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      A
I was stoned and I missed it
      E                   A
I was stoooooned oh me oh my
