About Matt Pless
"The trouble with writing about yourself is that you can't fool around. If you write about someone else, you can stretch the truth from here to Finland. If you write about yourself, the slightest deviation makes you realize instantly that there may be honor among thieves, but you are just a dirty liar."------Groucho Marx-------- Matt Pless is a solo artist from Baltimore Maryland. He has played shows all over the country, from the streets and subways of New York City, to sunny Venice Beach California.

[Intro]
F C A# C F C A# C
[Verse]
F Dm
Smoked lots of cigarettes, filled my lungs up with regret
A# C
But I got a second chance, I put down those cancer sticks
F Dm
Never should have picked them up, but they say whats done is done
A# C
And I'm done with slavery, feeling better everyday
[Chorus]
A# C Dm
I said I'd quit a time or two before
A# C F
Then I'd always bum another from a friend
A# C Dm
Because moderation meant just one more
A# C F
So I hope I never smoke one again
C A# C F C A# C
[Verse]
F
No more holding hands with Death
Dm
Had to stop and catch my breathe
A#
No more coughing in the cold
C
Stranded on Tobacco Road
F
Used to smoke them in the car
Dm
When my favorite song came on
A# C
With a coffee or a beer, after nearly every meal
F Dm
Feeling like a hypocrite and making corporations rich
A# C
In exchange they make me sick, either way you pay for it
F Dm
They sell them to you overpriced, medical bills start to rise
A# C
Life's a drag but surely I can find a cheaper way to die
[Chorus]
A# C Dm
And I remember fits of nicotine
A# C F
Wishing every cigarette would never end
A# C Dm
But it seems like lately I need room to breathe
A# C F
So I hope I never smoke one again
[Instrumental]
C A# C F C A# C A# C Dm A# C F C
[Verse]
F* Dm*
But when it comes down to it, some folks just don't wanna quit
A#* C
And that's their prerogative, I can't tell you how to live
F Dm
But I hope that you survive, hope I bought myself some time
A# C
Hope we make it out alive, or at least 'till 95
[Chorus]
A# C Dm
I'm through with throwing half a pack away
A# C F
Then the next day digging through the garbage can
A# C Dm
Because I'm an addict, what else can I say?
A# C
But I hope I never smoke one
A# C
I hope I never smoke one
A# C F C F
I hope I never smoke one again
