[Intro] C G A D7 G [Verse 1]
        G                              C               G
There's some who like to protest and a lot who like to moan

                                         A7                D
And no one wants to pay their tax or the interest on their loan

    G                                   C                 B7
But as you struggle on through life for all that you hold dear

  C                  G               A7       D       G
Remember that you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer.
[Chorus]
           C                                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer

   C                       A7              D
No matter what you read or matter what you hear

       C                                  G               E
It's a lay down hand you bet you're gonna pay for all you get

    A7                     D                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer.
[Verse 2]
    G                              C             G
How often have you heard about the overnight success?

                                    A7              D
The man who made it to the top in a month or two or less.

     G                       C                  B7
They say he got it easy with friends who opened doors

    C                 G                A7     D        G
But nine times out of ten he's battled twenty years before
[Chorus]
           C                                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer

   C                       A7              D
No matter what you read or matter what you hear

       C                                  G               E
It's a lay down hand you bet you're gonna pay for all you get

           A7              D                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer
[Instrumental] C C G G E A7 D G [Verse 3]
      G                                 C               G
Don't waste your time complainin' cause no one wants to know

                                  A7                   D
In life there's no rehearsal it's straight on with the show

          G                             C              B7
As you're roarin' down a highway smooth as a feathered bed

        C             G              A7          D
Keep an eye out for a sign that says gravel road ahead.
[Chorus]
           C                                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer

   C                       A7              D
No matter what you read or matter what you hear

       C                                  G               E
It's a lay down hand you bet you're gonna pay for all you get

           A7              D                G        E
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer, my friend

           A7              D                G
Hey you've gotta drink the froth to get the beer.
[Outro] G
