I Gotta Get Drunk

Willie Nelson

Key

Scroll

D D7

Well, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

G D

cause I know just what I'm gonna do

I'll start to spend my money callin' everybody honey

E7 A7

and wind up singin' the blues

G D

I'll spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck

D A7

And brother I could name you a few

D D7 G

Well, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

D A7 D

cause I know just what I'm gonna do

Verse 2

D D7

I gotta get drunk, I can't stay sober

G D

There's a lot of good people in town

Who'd like to hear me holler, see me spend my dollars

E7 A7

and I wouldn't think of lettin 'em down

There's a lot of doctors that tell me

D A7

that I'd better start slowing it down

D D7 G

But there's more old drunks than there are old doctors

D A7 D

So I guess we'd better have another round

Verse 1

D D7

Well now, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

G D

cause I know just what I'm gonna do

I'll start to spend my money callin' everybody honey

E7 A7

and wind up singin' the blues

G D

I'll spend my whole paycheck on some old wreck

D A7

And brother I could name you a few

D D7 G

Well, I gotta get drunk and I sure do dread it

D A7 D

cause I know just what I'm gonna do
