D 
Spent the night with Jim Beam and Johnny Walker red 
D 
Woke up with a freight train running through my head 
G 
I'm a beer man 
D 
Bobby's more the wine kind, Donny does his shots 
D 
Sammy sips martinis, Willie smokes pot 
           G 
But I'm a beer man 
 
 
Chorus: 
      Bm                     A 
I've done a little stepping out there on a limb 
        G 
But my open mind winds up closed again 
   Bm                      A 
I like brown bottles and aluminum cans 
Em                 A 
Simple maybe but that's who I am 
                D 
Hey I'm just a beer man 
 
 
D 
Take your caviar and that fish that ain't cooked 
D 
Take it off a cracker and throw it on a hook 
       G 
I'm a beer man 
D 
And if I was a rich man tell you what I'd do 
D 
I'd be the same old plain old guy you always knew 
    G 
Just a beer man 
 
 
Chorus 2: 
I've done a little stepping out there on a limb 
But my open mind winds up closed again 
I like brown bottles and aluminum cans 
Call me simple but that's who I am 
Hey I'm just a beer man

Chorus 3: 
Yeah I've done a little stepping out there on a limb 
But my open mind winds up closed again 
I like brown bottles and aluminum cans 
Call me simple but I can't change who I am 
Ya'll I'm just a beer man 
 
            G         D 
Yeah I'm a beer man
