Written and recorded by Tom T. Hall
In s[E]ome of my songs I have [A]casually mentioned[E]
The fact that I like [Bm]to drink beer
Th[E]is little song is more[A] to the point[E]
So roll [F#]out the barrel and lend me[Bm] your ear
( Tab from: http://www.guitartabs.cc/tabs/t/tom_t_hall/i_like_beer_crd_ver_2.html )
Refrain:
I like be[A]er it makes me a jolly good fellow[E]
I like beer[A] it helps [F#]me unwind
And sometimes it makes me feel mellow (make[Bm]s him feel mellow)
[E]Whiskeys too rough cham[A]pagne cost too much[E]
Vodka puts my mouth i[A]n gear
This lit[A]tle refrain shoul[E]d help me explain[C#]
As a matte[F#]r of fact I [Bm]like beer[E]
My wife [E]often frowns when we're[A] out on the town[E]
And I'm wearing a suit an[Bm]d a tie
She's sipp[E]ing vermouth and she t[A]hinks I'm uncouth[E]
When I yell[F#] as the waiter goes by[Bm]
(Repeat refrain)
L[E]ast night I dreamed tha[A]t I passed from the sce[E]ne
And I went to a place [Bm]so sublime
The wate[E]r was clear and it [A]tasted like beer[E]
Then they [F#]turned it all into win[Bm]e (awwww)
(Repeat refrain)
