VERSE 1
He was s[D]ittin at the bar, s[A7]ippin on a regular c[D]oke.
We were [G]drinkin and smokin and making him the butt of our j[D]okes.
We all said [G]man what happened to you? Why [D]can't you just have a [G]few?
He said I w[D]ould if I could, but i[A7]t's probably best that I d[D]on't.
CHORUS
'Cause the more I d[D]rink, the more I d[F#7]rink,
Then I'm the w[G]orld's greatest lover and a d[D]ancin' machine.
I get loud, I get proud and it gets w[A7]orse
Well if I have [D]one, I'll have thi[F#7]rteen, Now there a[G]in't no in bet[D]ween
'Cause the more I drink,[A7] hmm, the more I d[D]rink
VERSE 2
A couple of cold ones and somebody hands me a shot
Hell even bucktooth and bowlegged women start lookin' hot
And pretty soon I'm bummin' cigarettes and sweet talkin' some big brunette
Once I get on a roll, there ain't no tellin' where I'll stop
CHORUS
'Cause the more I [D]drink, the more I [F#7]drink
And I'm the [G]world's greatest lover and a [D]dancin' machine
I get [D]loud, I get proud, and it gets [A7]worse
Yeah if I have [D]one I'll have thir[F#7]teen, now there [G]ain't no in-be[D]tween
'Cause the more I [D]drink, the more I [A7]drink, the more I [D]drink, yeah yeah
[D] [F#7] [G] [D]Mmm that's what I'm talkin' about[A7]
Man if I have [D]one, I'll have thir[F#7]teen
Then they [G]can't get me off the kare[D]okee machine
The more I [D]drink,[A7] the more I [D]drink[G]
Yeah the more I [D]drink, the more I d[A7]rink, the more I drink
