Drinkin' Them Beers
~ Tompall & The Glaser Brothers (1981)
Written by Bill Chappell
G+G
Last night, I had a little talk with myself
C majorC G+G
Just me and me, man to man
G+G
I said, Self, I think it?s time I laid it on the line
D7D7 G+G
And I tried my best to make me understand:
G+G
Drinking them beers
G+G
Shedding them tears
C majorC G+G
Over a love that?s grown cold
G+G
Wasting time, yours and mine
D7D7
And wasted time can make a man grow old
G+G
I said, Self, you?ll ruin your health
C majorC G+G
They say alcohol will cook the brain
G+G
I answered me, That well may be
D7D7 G+G
But you know it sure works good to kill the pain
G+G
Last night, I had a little talk with myself
C majorC G+G
About an old love affair
G+G
I said, Self, can?t you see, she?s killing you and me
D7D7 G+G
And we both know she don?t even care
G+G
Drinking them beers
G+G
Shedding them tears
C majorC G+G
Over a love that?s grown cold
G+G
Wasting time, yours and mine
D7D7
And wasted time can make a man grow old
G+G
I said, Self, you?ll ruin your health
C majorC G+G
They say alcohol will cook the brain
G+G
I answered me, That well may be (well may be)
D7D7 G+G
But you know it sure works good to kill the pain
G+G
Drinking them beers
G+G
Shedding them tears (crocodile)
C majorC G+G
Over a love that?s grown cold
G+G
Wasting time, yours and mine
D7D7 G+G
And wasted time can make a man grow old (a man grow old)
