I Like Beer
Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall
(C) (F) (C)
In some of my songs I have casually mentioned
(G7)
The fact that I like to drink beer
(C) (F) (C)
This little song is more to the point
(D7) (G7)
So roll out the barrel and lend me your ear
Refrain:
(F) (C)
I like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
(F) (D7)
I like beer it helps me unwind
(G7)
And sometimes it makes me feel mellow (makes him feel mellow)
(C) (F) (C)
Whiskeys too rough champagne cost too much
(F)
Vodka puts my mouth in gear
(C) (Am)
This little refrain should help me explain
(G7) (C)
As a matter of fact I like beer
(F) (C)
My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
(G7)
And I'm wearing a suit and a tie
(C) (F) (C)
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
(D7) (G7)
When I yell as the waiter goes by
[Repeat refrain]
(C) (F) (C)
Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
(G7)
And I went to a place so sublime
(C) (F) (C)
The water was clear and it tasted like beer
(D7) (G7)
Then they turned it all into wine (awwww)
[Repeat refrain]
