The Drinker

ALBUM: Out On A Limb

INTRO:E,A,E,A

VERSE:
A
I'm just lying here in my bed

Wondering where I put my head
                                   E
Well I know it's lying around here somewhere
      A
I got drunk last night and the night before
D                         D7
I still don't know what I did that for
    A         D          E                A
And the way I feel right now I just don't care

VERSE:
Well there was me and a bunch of my crazy buddies
Getting all drunked up and smoking hooters in us
I don't remember what happened after that
But I do know if I was to ask my friends
They'd more than likely want to fill me in
But you know sometimes they exaggerate the facts

CHORUS:
           D
Think I'll get up and get me a cold, cold beer
A
Get my ass on out of here
D                                E
Go down town and do it all over again
D
Cause I'm just starting to realize
      A
There ain't nobody gonna sympathize
         E                         A
And this big old bottle is my only friend

BREAK:E,A,E,A
Harmonica:D,A,E,A
Piano:D,A,E,A
Guitar:D,A,D,A,E

VERSE:
That woman of mine she got so damn mad
Said I was really treating her bad
She got up and she walked right out the door 
Well I'm doing my best to try and recall
The reason why she left at all
It must have been the drinking
Could never be the alcohol

CHORUS:
