She hates her job, loves her kids
Bored with her husband
Bb
And tired of the same old list of things to do
F
So when the to do’s have all been done
C
She sits down at the kitchen table
F
Rolls herself a fat one
F
Smoke so sweet fills the air
She maybe oughta crack a window
Bb
But all she can do is stare at the paint
F
That’s been a-peeling off of the walls
C F
A couple of tokes and her troubles don’t seem all that tall
Bb
You know life will let you down
F
Love will leave you lonely
C Bb C
Sometimes the only way to get by
F
Is to get high
F
She laughs out loud
At who she used to be
The girl who’d’ve looked down on
Bb
The woman smoking weed in her kitchen
F
Sometimes she misses those younger days
C
Seeing the world through rose-coloured glasses
F
Instead of this purple haze
Bb
You know life will let you down
F
Love will leave you lonely
C Bb C
Sometimes the only way to get by
F
Is to get high
Inst – F
F
So she tucks her kids in at night
Kisses her husband
Bb
Turns off the light and talks to God
F
Says lord help me accept what I can’t change
C
But until I learn to do that
F
Thanks for the Mary Jane
Bb
You know life will let you down
F
Love's gonna leave you lonely
C Bb C
Sometimes the only way to get by

Is to get high

Yeah sometimes the only way to get by
F
Is to get high
