Repeat this lick again and throughout main verses...



Lyrics: (first verse)


When I first met you, I didn't realize,
I can't forget you, or your surprise.


You introduced me, into my mind,
and left me wanting, you and your prize.

Now repeat main riff for Verse 2...


Verse 2


Great people don't know, what your about,
They'll put you down, and shut you out.


You gave to me, a new beginning,
And soon the world will love you Sweet Leaf.



And on, and on, and on....
