I Wish I Still Smoked Cigarettes
Written by Lori Mckenna, Barry Dean & Luke Laird
Recorded by Ronnie Dunn
(Capo on 1)
G x4 bars
[Verse]
G
I wish I still smoked cigarettes, light one up and travel time
When a stiff drink and a whispered yes was enough to light a fire,
C
to feel alive
G
Wish I could go back to those nights sometimes
G
I wish I still drove a muscle car, horses rumbling under the hood
Flyin' past the welcome sign under the stars, wishin' I could leave for good
C
I swore I would
Em D
Every now and then I go back to that neighborhood
[Chorus]
C
I wish I still did a lot of things, I don't do anymore
G
When I didn't know what wasn't good for me, but I knew everything else for sure
Em D
I guess what I really miss is the freedom, then the way it felt, the innocence
C Am
That's what I really meant when I said
[Verse]
G
I wish I still smoked cigarettes, I felt more grown up then
We were talking about where we were gonna go instead of where we'd been
C
We'd ride around the lake and make those plans
Em D
Still had the world in the palm of our hands, we never had a chance, now and then
[Chorus]
I wish I still did a lot of things, I don't do anymore
G
When I didn't know what wasn't good for me, but I knew everything else for sure
Em D
I guess what I really miss is the freedom, then the way it felt, the innocence
C Am
That's what I really meant when I said
[Solo]
Em, D, C, C, Em, D, D
[Verse]
G
I wish I still smoked cigarettes, something to calm my nerves
Wherever you are tonight, you were better than I deserve
C
I wish I still smoked cigarettes
Am D
So I had something to let go up in smoke
