lyrics

Smoking in my backyard

I know a man younger than his dreams
Thought he’d done right but he’s not sure what that means
Each night I find him out watching the stars
And smoking in my backyard

Some folks they say his dreams won’t get him too far
No house on a hill, no fancy car
Just another night strumming a beat up guitar
And smoking in my backyard

Corus
Smoking in my backyard, smoking in my backyard
He’s only here because they locked up the bars
Smoking in my backyard

I know a man older than the hills
Alive today thanks to the pills
Each night I find him out watching the stars
Smoking in my backyard

Holes in his shoes and what’s left of his jeans
He’d trade all those stars to remember his dreams
He can’t remember anything now
But smoking in my backyard

Chorus

If you find yourself wanting late night company
Head around to my yard, that’s where I’ll be
I’ll spin you a line and pour you a jar
Who’d have thought we’d get this far

I know a man, he lives inside of my head
Refuses to leave until they pronounce me dead
So I’m drinking my wine out in the old tool shed
And smoking in my backyard

Chorus
