(início)

Intro: C  G  D (x2)
Verse 1:
           D           C
Well I'm a sucker for fine Cuban cigars
G                       D
The problem is I can't afford em
     D                          C
But last year I went and got myself a whole box
G                    D
Just to be safe I insured em
   A          G              D
I took out a policy against fire and theft
A       G          D
Then I hurried on home
       A        G            D     D/F#   G
With a 50 cent lighter I sat on my back steps
       C         G      D
And I smoked em one by one
C  G  D
Verse 2:
Two weeks later I went to see that insurance man
And I handed him my claims
With a straight face I told him that through a series of small fires
They'd all gone up in flames
They reviewed my case and they had no choice
But to pay me for what I'd done
I took that check bought a whole new box
And I smoked em one by one
Instrumental: C   G   D   D   C   G   A
Verse 3:
Two weeks later this detective shows up
Tells me that company's pressing charges
One speedy trial later they locked me up
On 24 seperate counts of arson
And now I sit and I stare at a blank brick wall
Looking back on what I've done
To pass the time I've got some 10 cent cigars
And I smoke em one by one
        C        G
Yeah I smoke em one by one
