E (022100@1)                    A (x02220@1)                      EIn (022100@1)some of my songs I have casually mentioned
                     BmThe (x24432@1)fact that I like to drink beer
  E (022100@1)                   A (x02220@1)               EThis (022100@1)little song is more to the point
        F# (244322@1)                      BmSo (x24432@1)roll out the barrel and lend me your ear

Refrain:
         A (x02220@1)                                  EI (022100@1)like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
           A (x02220@1)       F# (244322@1)I like beer it helps me unwind 
                                           BmAnd (x24432@1)sometimes it makes me feel mellow (makes him feel mellow)
E (022100@1)                    A (x02220@1)                          EWhiskeys (022100@1)too rough champagne cost too much
                     AVodka (x02220@1)puts my mouth in gear
        A (x02220@1)              E (022100@1)              C#This (x43121@1)little refrain should help me explain
          F# (244322@1)        Bm (x24432@1)         EAs (022100@1)a matter of fact I like beer

E (022100@1)                    A (x02220@1)              E (022100@1)    
My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
                         BmAnd (x24432@1)I'm wearing a suit and a tie
          E (022100@1)                   A (x02220@1)                  E (022100@1)
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
           F# (244322@1)                           BmWhen (x24432@1)I yell as the waiter goes by

[Repeat refrain]

E (022100@1)                    A (x02220@1)                    ELast (022100@1)night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
                      BmAnd (x24432@1)I went to a place so sublime
        E (022100@1)                A (x02220@1)              EThe (022100@1)water was clear and it tasted like beer
          F# (244322@1)                  BmThen (x24432@1)they turned it all into wine  (awwww)

[Repeat refrain]
