Chainsmokin Memories Lyrics by Thelma & James
I remember Oklahoma
That Chesterfield sofa,
Backseat of your Nova
Like it was yesterday
Butterflies on a blue dress
Cigarettes on a swing set
Starting fires in my head
With the same old flame
Ooo I light one up, I burn one down
Ooo I breathe you in, I breathe you out
Good God, it’s bittersweet
It’s like cinnamon and nicotine
And I don’t care if it’s killing me
Can’t stop chainsmokin’ memories
A pocket full of matches
Smell of you on my jacket
Missing you’s a bad habit
I just can’t kick, I can’t quit
Ooo I light one up, I burn one down
Ooo I breathe you in, I breathe you out
Good God, it’s bittersweet
It’s like cinnamon and nicotine
And I don’t care if it’s killing me
Can’t stop chainsmokin’ memories
I said
Good God, it’s bittersweet
It’s like muscadine wine and kerosene
And I don’t care if it’s killing me
Can’t stop chainsmokin’ chainsmokin’
(Chainsmokin’)
(Chainsmokin’)
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
Mmm mmm mmm mmm
Good God, it’s bittersweet
It’s like cinnamon and nicotine
And I don’t care if it’s killing me
Can’t stop chainsmokin’ memories
