Capo 2


   D                  G             D
In some of my songs I have casually mentioned
    D                         A
The fact that I like to drink beer
D                   G           D
This little song is more to the point
E7                      A
Roll out the barrel and lend me your ears


Chorus:
       G
I like beer
   G                     D 
It makes me a jolly good fellow
       G
I like beer
   E7                                            A
It helps me unwind and sometime it makes me feel mellow (“Makes him feel mellow”)
D                       G               D  
Whiskeys too rough, champagne costs too much
    D                      G
And Vodka puts my mouth in gear
     G        ?            D         B7
This little refrain should help me explain
     E7        A7          D
As a matter of fact I like beer


My wife often frowns when we're out on the town
I'm wearing a suit and a tie
She's sipping vermouth and she thinks I'm uncouth
When I yell when the waiter walks by

Chorus

Last night I dreamed that I passed from the scene
And I went to a place so sublime
The water was clear and it tasted like beer
Then they turned it all into wine  (“ahhhh”)


Chorus

“Yes he likes beer”
