Drinking Song  ( Alan Hull )   from:  Another little adventure
-------------

Capo on 5th

Intro: Am, G, Am   -   C,Em,Am,G (**)   -   Am, G, Esus4, E

** = all four chords played very fast;
     every '**' below means to play these 4 chords


1.)
A rich man drinks only whiskey, a poor man drinks only wine,
  Am	    G	        Am    **  Am         G 	        Am    **
a middle class man drinks when he can,
  Am		G	   Am	   G
but a wise man drinks all of the time.
      Dm	       F		( like Intro )


2.)
And a rich lady drinks only sherry, at her bridge parties every night,
	    Am	 D	     Am    **	    Am		   G	 Am
the players are drunk, but remain polite,
     Am	  	 G	     Am	    G
they don't care who's won 'cause they're all too tight.
      Dm				  F      Am, G, Am    **


Chorus:
And there's really no other way,
	     Am	   E	    Am, G 
there's really no other way.
  	 Am	E	Am, G


3.)
And the magistrate is drinking his lunch, when the thief has been found guilty and fined,

and the congregation is leaving church

and the vicar is pissed on the sacramental wine.


'cos there's really no other way.


4.)
So if you ever stop to think, why this world's so insecure,

it's all because some politicians 

Or smoke marijuana in public places,

but most of all it's because they take a drink.

Because, there's really no other way.

there's really no other way.
