Pot Head chords by Daniel Johnston

Verse:

Gm                Dm
Man you look like old man's eyes


       C               F
When I saw you in that room


    Em            Am
And now you're on tour


     C                     Bm  B
They booked you in the asylum

Verse:

  Gm       Dm       C          F
You work so hard at being a buffoon


    Em                     Am
And now you ain't got no incentive left


    C                 Bm    B
You popped your own balloon


Chorus:

               C      G
You wanted to be somebody


         F        C   B
But you ain't nobody


                C
You ain't got no body


              G
You're just a head


                 C    G
You're just a pothead


Bridge:

  A
I heard one day they said you got so high


    D
You ate up a chicken head and it was still alive


  A
I have some friends who swear you did so don't deny


  D
Some day you're gonna get so messed up


You'll eat the head off your kid

                        A
And won't you be sorry, pothead


Verse:

    Gm                 Dm
You brag to all your friends


           C               F
About the fun you had last night


    Em             Am          C                 Bm     B
I wonder if you realise you forgot to brush your teeth


    Gm                         Dm
And then you'll come a-bummin'


  C              F
Asking for some money


     Em              Am
You even tried to roll the sacred pages


C                  Bm    B
And you burnt your lip


Verse:

    Gm              Dm
That lip is has a trench in it


 C                   F
Where that wild weed sits


Em              Am
Sucking like a parasite


       C                    Bm     B
Of any sense you might have left


Verse:

    Gm                Dm
You say that you are happy


        C             F
And you like stormy weather


        Em                    Am
Well I think that you're just dumb


     C                  Bm    B
And you don't know any better


Verse:

     Gm                 Dm
You play your rock and roll guitar


                C              F
You say you're gonna be a big star


      Em                 Am
But everyone in this neighborhood


  C                Bm    B
Knows just who you are


Verse:

   Gm                    Dm
No I ain't tryin' to be hard


         C            F
I don't mean to be cruel


           Em                             Am
I'm just tryin' to say something that'll shock


                   C         B
You into going back to school


                      C
Or maybe at least reality


      G
In this year


C
Pothead


Outro:

              C       G
You wanted to be somebody


         F       C
But you ain't nobody


B               C
You ain't got no body


               G
You're just a head

C G
