VERSE
[E]I woke up the other night l[B]yin' on the floor
B E (riff 0:16)
Right beside someone I'd never seen before
[E]She said my name's Juliet, but Romeo you a[A]in't
That's an[B]other reason not to [E]drink
CHORUS
That's [E]another good reason not to [B]drink
[B]When I'm sober, I'm almost a sa[E]int
[E]If I keep goin' on like this, I'll end up like ole H[A]ank
That's a[B]nother good reason not to d[E]rink
VERSE 2
I can't go see my best friend, he said stay away
Just because of what I said on his wedding day
You oughta call her Sherman 'cause she looks just like a tank
That's another good reason not to drink
(CHORUS)
GUITAR SOLO (see TAB below)
VERSE 3
[F]Now I'm gonna sue the city a[C]bout that policeman
[C]Last night as I left the bar he s[F]tepped right on my hand
[F]He said are you drunk or blind, I said let me t[Bb]hink
That's a[C]nother good reason not to d[F]rink
(CHORUS)
FIDDLE SOLO
(CHORUS) see riff 3:03 and riff 3:09
Baby let me in I'm freezing
That's another good reason not to drik
