VERSE
E                          B
I woke up the other night lyin' on the floor
B                        E           (riff 0:16)
Right beside someone I'd never seen before
E                                         A
She said my name's Juliet, but Romeo you ain't
         B                   E     
That's another reason not to drink


CHORUS
       E                          B
That's another good reason not to drink
B                              E
When I'm sober, I'm almost a saint
E                                                   A
If I keep goin' on like this, I'll end up like ole Hank
        B                          E
That's another good reason not to drink


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                           C           
Now I'm gonna sue the city about that policeman
C                                F
Last night as I left the bar he stepped right on my hand
F                                              Bb
He said are you drunk or blind, I said let me think
        C                          F
That's another good reason not to drink


(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


OUTRO (piano, pedal steel, then electric guitar, see riff 4:11)
