  G               Em     Am7       D7
I dreamed about a reefer five feet long

G       Em           Am7       D
A might immense, but not too strong

G         G7        C       Cm
You'll be high, but not for long

G  D        G     D7
If you're a viper.


G       Em      Am7  D7
I'm the king of everything

  G         Em       Am7   D
I got to be high, before I swing

G       G7          C         Cm
Let the bells ring, ding-dong-ding

G  D        G     G7
If you're a viper.


         C
Say, you know you're high when your throat gets dry

                        B Bb
And everything is dandy

A7
Ah, yes, you run down to the candy store

D7                    D          G   D7
And bust your conk on peppermint candy


G        Em                 Am7          D7
Then you know you're little brown body's sent

    G            Em          Am7       D
You don't give a darn if you don't pay rent

        G      G7        C     Cm
Cuz the sky is high, and so am I

G          D          G    D7
Yes, I'm a viper baby now


SOLO

          C
Well, you know you're high, yes I know I'm high

                                 B Bb
And everything is fine and dandy

A7
Yes, goin' down to the candy store

           D7                D          G   D7
And get me Wrigley's or some peppermint candy


G          Em                           Am7    D7
I love it, I love it, yes, baby, but my body's sent

G                        Em                           Am7   D
I ain't worried 'bout no rent -- get away from me you hussy

G             G7           C            Cm
I'se high, so alive, gonna lay down and relax

G         D          G
