Dewey Wayne - I Reckon
from the album: Here for the Music
[Chorus]
G G D
I reckon, I'm fixin, to drink me another drink
D G
'Cause I've got a reason and I've got a dime, and I've got you to thank
G C
I thought my ship was about to come in, but you caused that ship to sink
G D G
That's why I reckon that I'm fixin to drink me another drink
[Verse 1]
G D
When I came in this bar and sat on this stool, I had two things on my mind
D G
One was to drink till the other was nothing, but a distant blurred outline
G C
This Wild Turkey ain't done the trick, 'cause your face keep bleeding through
G D G
But I ain't the kind, to give up on a job, and tonight I've got a job to do
[Chorus]
G G D
I reckon, I'm fixin, to drink me another drink
D G
'Cause I've got a reason and I've got a dime, and I've got you to thank
G C
I thought my ship was about to come in, but you caused that ship to sink
G D G
That's why I reckon that I'm fixin to drink me another drink
[Solo]

[Verse 2]
G D
I finally figured out everyone but me knows what a fool I've been
D G
But I can guarantee I won't be around to hear your lies again
G C
Now wait a minute, there I go again a rantin' and a ravin' 'bout you
G D G
Hey there bartender I hope you got a bottle big enough for me to climb into
[Chorus]
G G D
I reckon, I'm fixin, to drink me another drink
D G
'Cause I've got a reason and I've got a dime, and I've got you to thank
G C
I thought my ship was about to come in, but you caused that ship to sink
G D G
That's why I reckon that I'm fixin to drink me another drink
