C                         G
Don't delay, leave today..get out now
G7        C
while you can.
C                               G
Don't be daft, leave your half..to the
     G7       C
hard drinking man.
            G
And if they start knocking, it's just the
C             F D7   G
booze talking........they've got the Malt and
       C
Barley Blues.

[Verse 2]
C                               G
Take your chance while you can..we're behind you
G7      C
all the way.
C                              G
Some are proud, some are loud..pay no heed
   G7        C
to what they say.

[Chorus]
              G                            C
It's just the booze talking..it's just the booze
        F D7
talking...
G                               C
They've got the Malt and Barley Blues.

[Bridge]
F                C             D7                  G7
Someone tries to patronise you when you don't know why.
C                 A7      D7                G7        C   C7
But you can stand up, and look them right between the eyes.

[Chorus]
              G                            C
It's just the booze talking..it's just the booze
        F D7
talking...
G                               C
They've got the Malt and Barley Blues.

It's just the booze talking..it's just the booze
        F D7
talking...
G                               C

[Outro]
              G                            C
It's just the booze talking..it's just the booze
