C5          F5     
I just got to raise this beer and make a toast 
G5                       C5            G5 
I got fired to day, now lets get comatose 
     C5                        F5       
Well babe it's ok, we'll have time to get in shape 
G5                    C5 
Down at jims bar and grill lifting weights,  
 

      C5                      F5 
Doing 12 ounce curls i ain't lazy 
         G5                           C5 
It's the exercise that satisifies my mind 
        C5                             F5 
Got the weight of the world drivin me crazy 
    G5                              C5 
I'm taking it away, 12 ounces at a time  
 
Oh I need to improve myself 

I'm askin you please to have patience 

We may need to seek some professional help 

Down at the Detox and Rehabilitation 

Doin' those: 

Chorus 
 
Bridge: 
G5             C5 
Forty's fine, Sixteen's good enough 
     D5                               G5 
Well I just want 12 ounces at a time that won't run out 
F5                                    C5 
As long as there's enough for all of you and all of me 
D5                                          G5 
When this place runs out well, we'll call it history 
 
 
Fiddle 
 
 
Steel 
 
 
So a beer for everybody that can afford one 
Tell that barmaid bring me one too 
I need to blow job related troubles off my mind 
And quit worrying about how I'm getting' screwed
