Cary Swinney - Johnson Grass Farm guitar chord

Johnson Grass Farm

By Cary Swinney

From the CD Martha

To that spirit of freedom, Innocence and independence in all of us

D G

I’m gonna live on marijuana and I ain’t gonna work at all

D

I’m gonna find me a house in the country and grow that

A

shit ‘bout ten feet tall

D G

I’m gonna plant alongside Johnson Grass which I pray grows

a little taller

D

If you slide by the house and the lights are out you will

A

hear me hoop

D

and holler

(Chorus)

NC D G

Lord Jesus I’m stoned, ain’t doing nobody no wrong

D

Doin a little bit ‘a front porch thinkin some star studded dreamin and

A D

singin those Gospel songs, ain’t doin nobody no harm

G

livin on a Johnson Grass farm

D A

I’m not guilty of a crime just havin me a time

G D

And waitin on the harvest to come

D G

When the sun in the evenin slowly slithers down

D A

You will find me in my backyard diggin those plants up outta the ground

D G

Naked as a newborn baby and carefree as your local bum

D A D

Down on my hands n knees prayin for a rain shower to come

(Chorus)
