Bobby Bare – I Drink (Guitar)

  C
He'd get home at five thirty, fix his drink,

                  F
Sit down in his chair,

  G
Pick a fight with momma,

                                       C
Complain about us kids getting in his hair,

                                         F
I'd see his frown behind his lighters flame,

                                Dm
Now that same frown is in my mirror,

    G                             C
I got my daddies blood inside my veins

C               F              G           C
Fish swim, Birds fly, daddies yell, mommas cry,

                   F        Am     Dm  G         C
Old men, sit and think,                       I drink.

C
ya got that Chicken TV dinner, six minutes, on defrost,

            F
Three on high,

 G
Beer to wash it down with, then another,

                    C
little whisky on the side,

                        F
That every night's the same,

                        Dm
I don't need another lover,

         G                        C
Hanging round, trying to make me change

C               F               G          C
Fish swim, Birds fly, lovers leave, by and by

                   F        Am     Dm  G         C
Old men, sit and think,                        I drink.

E  Em           F       Em      F     D      G
I know, what I am, but I don't……, I don't give a damn.

C               F              G           C
Fish swim, Birds fly, daddies yell, mommas cry,

                   F        Am     Dm  G         C
Old men, sit and think,                       I drink.
