Tom: Am
Am G
Well my buddy once told me boy you got a good tune
D
But it ain't something I can tap my boots to
Am G
You're playing the guitar just too damn slow
D
Like songs about heartache is all you know
Am G
I told him oh man I can't figure it out
D
Won't you tell me the kind of song you wanna hear about
Am G
He looked at me strange and he said something weird
D E
And this is what he whispered in my ear, oh woah
[Chorus]
Am
Give me a song about beer cans and whiskey bottles
G
Backroads and pasture parties
D
Loose women, tight jeans, and Texas country music scene
Am
Bull fighting, bronc riding
G
Raising hell, done been to jail
D
Them smoky bars I came to see
Am G
I need a song to play to get me through this day
D Am G D
If you wanna know the truth, all I really want
Am
Is a song I can drink too
G D
Am G D
[Verse]
Am G
I got on stage, ain't even played my first show
D
I grabbed my guitar, reset the capo
Am G
Asked my band what they wanted to play
D
And I could tell by the fear and the look on their face
Am G
I told the crowd here's a song that you ain't heard
D
And by the end of the night you'll know every single word
Am G D
By the end of the night you'll know every single word
[Chorus]
Am
To a song about beer cans and whiskey bottles
G
Backroads and pasture parties
D
Loose women, tight jeans, and Texas country music scene
Am
Bull fighting, bronc riding
G
Raising hell, done been to jail
D
Them smoky bars I came to see
Am G
I need a song to play to get me through this day
D Am G D
If you wanna know the truth, all I really want
Am
Is a song I can drink too
G D
[Solo]
Am G D
Am G D
[Bridge]
Am G D
Give me a song about beer cans and whiskey bottles
Am G D
Yeah them backroads and pasture parties
Am G D
Them loose naughty women, in them tight fitting jeans
Am G D
You know you can't forget about that Texas music scene
[Chorus]
Am
Give me a song about beer cans and whiskey bottles
G
Backroads and pasture parties
D N.C.
Loose women, tight jeans, and Texas country music scene
Am
Bull fighting, bronc riding
G
Raising hell, done been to jail
D
Them smoky bars I came to see
Am G
I need a song to play to get me through this day
D Am G D
If you wanna know the truth, all I really want
Am
Is a song I can drink too
G D
Oh whoa oh oh
Am G D
Give me a song I can drink too
