[Intro]
G E7 A7 D7 G* X2
[Verse 1]
G Well, when I got home from E7work last night A7 I headed straight for my D7stash, 'cause
G I wanted some of my E7private blend which is A7 two parts grass to one D7part hash.
Well, G when I got to my little secret G7hiding place and I Cchecked out my little plastic A7/C#bag.
G E7 A7 D7 G*
Well, there wasn't a speck of that nice leaf left and I felt my whole spirit sag.
[Chorus]
There's nothing but C twigs and seeds, G twigs and seeds
G E7 A7 D7 G* N.C.
and they sure don't deliver the punch that this ole head needs.
[Verse 2]
G So I phoned up my old conE7nection and I said "A7Look, Richard, this is an eD7mergency, man, look, I
Gjust discovered that I am E7 fresh out of that A7herb that's so dear to D7me. You know what I mean man?"
"GLook, Jesse, I'd like to G7help you, man", said, "CI'm in business to supply you with the A7/C#weed, you know,
G E7 A7 D7 G*
but the man just busted a whole huge shipment of mine and now everyone in town's smokin' Twigs and seeds".
[Chorus]
There's nothing but C twigs and seeds, G twigs and seeds
G E7 A7 D7 G* N.C.
and they sure don't deliver the punch that this ole head needs.
[Interlude]
G E7 A7 D7 G*
[Verse 3]
G So, you have morning glory E7seeds and nutmeg and LA7SD and model airplane D7glue
and peyote buttons an' GMethedrine, BenzeE7drine, Hexedrine; A7 someone said banana peels would D7do.
Let us Gsay the use of these varG7ious hallucinogrens was C somehow no longer a legal misA7/C#deed.
G E7 A7 D7 G*
Well, man, I still think there ought to be some sort of law about possession of nothin' but twigs and seeds.
[Chorus]
There's nothing but C twigs and seeds, G twigs and seeds
G E7 A7 D7 G* N.C.
and they sure don't deliver the punch that this ole head needs.
[End-Chorus]
There's nothing but C twigs and seeds, G twigs and seeds
G E7 A7 D7 G* G
and they sure don't deliver the punch that this ole head needs.
