Josh Thompson - Beer On The le Chords

Intro:  A  x4


Verse 1:
A
Every mornin' I get up before that rooster crows

Headin' straight to somewhere I don't even want to go
         D
Eggs and bacon in my belly and a Folger's coffee buzz
     A
Good ol' radar detector it protects me from the fuzz
        E
Well, I do what I gotta do to get through workin' that 9 to 5
     G                              D
It's killin' me but then again it's keepin' me alive


Chorus:
            A
It puts the gas in my truck, butter on my biscuits

A couple bucks when I'm itchin' for a scratch-off ticket
     D
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
  A
I still got runnin' water and they ain't cut off the lights
     E
Come Friday night, My friends and I start peelin' off them labels
        G                  D
Workin' hard all week puts beer on the table

Inst.:  A  x2


Verse 2:
A
Eighteen bucks an hour and a million dollar tan

Women whistle at me while I'm workin' for the man
D
Makin' me some cold hard cash out in that summer sun
     A
Come Friday I'll have money but by Monday I'll have none
         E
Once the bills are paid and that bass boat tank has gone from E to F
  G                                 D
I fill that big ol' cooler up there ain't a whole lot left


Chorus:
            A
Well, I got gas in my truck, butter on my biscuits,

A couple bucks when I'm itchin' for a scratch-off ticket
     D
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
  A
I still got runnin' water and they ain't cut off the lights
     E
Come Friday night,My friends and I start peelin' off them labels
        G                      D
Workin' hard all week puts the beer on the table


Inst.:  A  x2

G    D                A
Oh,  oh, I'm a simple man, yes I am
G              D                      E
All I need's a few good friends and a good job,
                        G               D
And a good dog, maybe a woman that understands


Chorus:
         A
A little gas in my truck, some butter on my biscuits,
                                      n.c.
A couple bucks when I'm itchin' for a scratch-off ticket
     D
That poker makes me broker every Saturday night
  A
I still got runnin' water and they ain't cut off the lights
     E
Come Friday night, My friends and I start peelin' off them labels
        G                    D
Workin' hard all week, yeah, puts the beer on the table


Outro:
A
  Puts the beer on the table
