I Like Beer
Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall

    E                      A                        E
In some of my songs I have casually mentioned
                     Bm
The fact that I like to drink beer
  E                     A                 E
This little song is more to the point
        F#                        Bm
So roll out the barrel and lend me your ear

Refrain:
         A                                    E
I like beer it makes me a jolly good fellow
           A         F# 
I like beer it helps me unwind 
                                           Bm
And sometimes it makes me feel mellow (makes him feel mellow)
E                      A                            E
Whiskeys too rough champagne cost too much
                     A
Vodka puts my mouth in gear
        A                E                C#
This little refrain should help me explain
          F#          Bm           E
As a matter of fact I like beer

        E                      A                E      
My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
                         Bm
And I'm wearing a suit and a tie
          E                     A                    E  
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
           F#                             Bm
When I yell as the waiter goes by

[Repeat refrain]

 E                      A                      E
Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
                      Bm
And I went to a place so sublime
        E                  A                E
The water was clear and it tasted like beer
          F#                    Bm
Then they turned it all into wine  (awwww)

[Repeat refrain]
