S1: I've seen a lot of people request this one all over the place, and
it's already in the archive, but it's way off so I had to set things
right. On the CD they use guitar capo 2, and it sounds better that way.
During the verses and intro the B7, D7, and A7 are all bar chords., INTRO
B7, D7, A7, A7-A#7-B7, D7, A7
VErSE oNE
B7 D7 A7 A7-A#7 Alchohol, my permanent accessory

A A/G# A/G D/F# D A I thought that alchohol was just for those with nothing else to Do
