G                                    C
This ole beer gut I got don’t get no smaller
     D7                                        G
If I thought it’d do any good I’d go ahead and call her
G                                              C
I’ve been drinkin’ up my pain since she’s been gone
    D7                    
For every fool there’s a good boss too
        C                 G
And the same ole sad, sad song


(Chorus)
G                                       C
That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song
D7                                 C              G
Drink a few with a song or two, It never takes me long
G                           C
As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong
           D7                                 C                G
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song

G                                          C
My friends keep tellin’ me boy you oughtta quit it
D7                                        G
They ain’t the ones that have to drink to forget it
G                                      C
Forgettin’ don’t come easy when you’re sober and all alone
     D7                                   C               G
So I pop my tops and play the jukebox and all the pain is gone


(Chorus)
G                                       C
That beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song
D7                                 C              G
Drink a few with a song or two, It never takes me long
G                           C
As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong
           D7                                 C                G
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song


G                           C
As long as I got money I’ll stay where I belong
           D7                                 C                G
Yeah, that beer would go a lot farther with a good ole hurtin’ song
