Drink up the Cider
[INTRO]
[G] [C] [G] [D7] [G] [C] [G] [D7] [G]
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[VERSE-1]
[G]Drink up the cider George, [C]pass me round the jug
[G]Drink up the cider George, I [D7]have an empty mug
The [G]night is almost over but you [C]see that we're still sober
And there's [G]still more [D7]cider in the [G]jug.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[CHORUS]
Drink up the [G]cider, drink up the [C]cider
[G]For tonight we'll merry [D7]be
We'll [G]knock the milkmaids over and [C]roll them in the clover
The [G]corn's half [D7]cut and so are [G]we.
-----------------------------------------------------------------
[VERSE-2]
[G]Drink up the cider George, [C]thee's been goin' far
[G]Drink up the cider George, thee's [D7]gettin' quite a star
Thy [G]cheeks are getting redder, from [C]Charthouse to Cheddar
And there's [G]still more [D7]cider in the [G]jar.

[G]Drink up the cider George, [C]get up off the mat
[G]Drink up the cider George, put [D7]on thy great big hat
