When I drink beer I know what happens
C#m A
I’ve seen it happen a hundred times before
E B
I tell myself I’ll just have a couple
A B E
And I’ll have a couple and a couple more
E B
By that 5th one I’m holding my phone
C#m A
Looking through pictures of me and you
E B
Then I sit there and stare at your number
A B E
Thinking a shouldn’t but I always do
B E A
Oohhhhh you don’t always answer
B E A
Ohhh it’s better if you don’t
B E A
Cuz oohhhh I can just keep drinking
F#m B
(Crawl in a cab and head back home
E B
When you answer it gets messed up
C#m A
Cuz you get dressed up and meet me here
E B
I know its only cuz your lonely
A B E
But that don’t matter when I drink beer
Solo: E, B, C#m, A
B E A
Oohhhh Layin’ there beside you
B E A
Ohhh I know it’s gonna hurt
B E A
Cuz oohhhh there ain’t nothing better
F#m B
Than holding you but there ain’t nothing worse
E B
When I wake up and that bed is empty
C#m A
That pain will hit me cuz you ain’t there
E B
I still want you but I can’t have you
A B E
And If I can’t have you I just want a beer
E B
Right now I’m thirsty for a cold one
C#m A
As much as I want one I’m steering clear
E B
Cuz I’m still hurting from the last time
A B E
And it’s been a long time since I drank beer
E B
So I’ll take water or maybe coke a cola
A B E
Cuz I know what happens when I drink beer
