“Uh, this is a song called “What Good Can Drinkin' Do”, that I wrote one night after
drinking myself into a stuper.” - Janis Joplin 

B
What good can drinkin' do? What good can drinkin' do?
B		    F# 				         B
Uh when I drink all night, but the next day I still feel blue. 
 				

B
There's a glass on the table, they say it's gonna ease all my pain.
B		E 						    B
Well, there's a glass on the table, they say it's gonna ease all my pain.			  
          F# 					           B
Oh when I drink it down, but the next day I still feel the same.

B
Give me whiskey, uh give me bourbon, give me gin.
            E                                 B
Oh, give me whiskey, give me bourbon, give me gin.

It don't matter what I'm drinkin' as long as it drowns the sorrow I'm in.


B
Now, my man he left me, child an he left me here.
       E                                B
Um, my man he left me, child he left me here.
         F#                                            B 			
When I'm feelin' low down, just gimme another drink of beer.


B
When I start drinkin' Friday, start drinkin' Friday night.
      E                                            B
Oh, I start drinkin' Friday, start drinking Friday night.
            F#                                             B
But, then I wake up on Sunday, child, ain't nothin' that's right.
