What Good Can Drinkin Do

Janis Joplin
“Uh, this is a song called “What Good Can Drinkin' Do”, that I wrote one night after
drinking myself into a stuper.” - Janis Joplin

 B
 What good can drinkin' do? What good can drinkin' do?
 BF#B
 Uh when I drink all night, but the next day I still feel blue.
 B
 There's a glass on the table, they say it's gonna ease all my pain.
 BEB
 Well, there's a glass on the table, they say it's gonna ease all my pain.
 F#B
Oh when I drink it down, but the next day I still feel the same.

 B
 Give me whiskey, uh give me bourbon, give me gin.
 EB
Oh, give me whiskey, give me bourbon, give me gin.
 F#B
It don't matter what I'm drinkin' as long as it drowns the sorrow I'm in.

 B
 Now, my man he left me, child an he left me here.
 EB
Um, my man he left me, child he left me here.
 F#B
When I'm feelin' low down, just gimme another drink of beer.

 B
 When I start drinkin' Friday, start drinkin' Friday night.
 EB
Oh, I start drinkin' Friday, start drinking Friday night.
 F#B
But, then I wake up on Sunday, child, ain't nothin' that's right.

 B
 What good can drinkin' do? What good can drinkin' do?
 BF#B
 Well, I drink all night, But the next day I still feel blue.
