[D]I was a drinker, [G]once
[A]I could handle more than [D]you
[D]In time booze turned me into a [G]dunce
[A]Now I am low-down, out and [D]blue
[D]Just keep it up [G]son
[A]Pour down some more that [D]booze
[D]You?ll think you are really the [G]one
[E7]But I tell you, in the end y[A]ou?ll l[D]ose
[D]John Barleycorn is the son of the [G]devil
[A]He will give more rope that you can [D]use
[D]You?ll believe you?re straight strong and [G]level
[E7]Just another number on the [A]evening [D]news
[D]Brag about your honk-tonk [G]tours
[A]And the women you?ve met and [D]had
[B]Turns out, none of them are [E]yours
[E7]And songs you sang are but [A]fads
[D]But you keep on a plug- [G]in
[A]You may get another [D]chance
[B]Your two fisted slug- [E]in
[E7]Speeds you to your [A]last [D]dance
[A]I could handle more than [D]you
[D]In time booze turned me into a [G]dunce
[A]Now I am low-down, out and [D]blue
[D]Just keep it up [G]son
[A]Pour down some more that [D]booze
[D]You?ll think you are really the [G]one
