E 
The trouble with drinkin' 
        A                  E 
Is it ain't no trouble at all 

I don't have no problem 
           F#         B 
When it comes to alcohol 
 E 
It's as easy to come by 
         A           A7 
As the air that I breathe 
 E                  A 
Unless I'm low on money 
 B                   E 
Or too high on the weed 


verse 1 
 E 
Some guys lose their woman 
 A                     E 
Some guys lose their nerve 

Some guys lose their temper 
  F#                         B 
And use those those nasty words 

 E 
I just lose my problems 
 A                       E 
And to hell if I don't mind 
  A                 E 
When I wake up tomorrow 
  B                      E 
They'll be too easy to find 


 
E 
The trouble with drinkin' 
        A                  E 
Is it ain't no trouble at all 

I don't have no problem 
           F#         B 
When it comes to alcohol 
 E 
It's as easy to come by 
         A           A7 
As the air that I breathe 
 E                  A 
Unless I'm low on money 
 B                   E 
Or too high on the weed 


verse 2 
E 
I ain't one for singing 
A                     E 
All them drinking songs 

I'd rather leave it to ol' Joe Fletcher 
  F#                         B 
And keep on keeping on 
 E 
But I sure love the drinking part 
A                       E 
And I think it loves me 
A                 E 
So I hold this beer in my hand 
B                      E 
Ever after happily 


E 
The trouble with drinkin' 
        A                  E 
Is it ain't no trouble at all 

I don't have no problem 
           F#         B 
When it comes to alcohol 
 E 
It's as easy to come by 
         A           A7 
As the air that I breathe 
 E                  A 
Unless I'm low on money 
 B                   E 
Or too high on the weed 


verse 3 
E 
Drinking and secrets 
A                     E 
That's how they do it way down South 

When a New York man gets liquored 
F#                         B 
He goes shooting off his mouth 
 E 
Back home in the Midwest 
A                       E 
We'd all drink with the band 
A                 E 
And it's usually too much 
B                      E 
And it's usually from a can 



E 
The trouble with drinkin' 
        A                  E 
Is it ain't no trouble at all 

I don't have no problem 
           F#         B 
When it comes to alcohol 
 E 
It's as easy to come by 
         A           A7 
As the air that I breathe 
 E                  A 
Unless I'm low on money 
 B                   E 
Or too high on the weed 

E 
It's as easy to come by 
         A           A7 
As the air that I breathe 
 E                  A 
Unless I'm low on money 
 B                   E 
Or too high on the weed
