[Intro]
G Am
It was the best day of my life
Em Bm
I had some real green shit that was stuck in my pipe
G Am
It wasn't black and nor was it brown but.
Em Bm
skunky as’a ripe-oh and just about right.
[Verse 1/3]
G Am
This psychedelic shit that was making me feel high
Em Bm
Despite that paranoia that was making me feel shy
G Am Em Bm
Oh-Ohh shit, why-I need a drink to get on with’a the this old cotton mouth,
dry see.
[Chorus]
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
You should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
See, you should know that I never meant to let go…
[Verse 3/3]
Well see,
G Am
today is the day’l that the tripper might(’nt) play
Em Bm
To blow your mind and give it a little (till I?) end display
G Am Em
X-ray vision, Should I smoke some more-ore
Bm
Now that's an easy decision.
G Am
I was falling down a black hole, reach impact with a collision
Em Bm
and I saw a Mickey Mouse oh, you got to be kidding
G Am Em
And I heard a few gun shots oh up in the air and I saw that Mickey
Bm
Mouse was givin’a me the death stare See,
[Chorus]
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
You should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
See, you should know that I never meant to let go…
[Verse 3/3]
G Am
o-Everybody’s got a reason but they just don't know it now.
Em Bm
Oh-Every step I take her, ooh, I look around
G Am Em
We’re higher, we’re higher than the aeroplane who just you gotta keep up-(a)bove the
Bm
surface or you surely drown.
G Am
Higher than the aeroplane beyond the hill side
Em Bm
Oh, if you shot us down then we'd burst into flames
G Am Em Bm
But like they say, no pain, no game and like they say, every dog has it's day See,
[Chorus]
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
You should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
See, you should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
You should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
See, you should know that I never meant to let go…
[Outro]
G Em Bm G Am Em Bm
You should know that I never meant to let go…
G Am Em Bm G Am Em Bm
See, you should know that I never meant to let go…
