By John Prine

1)
      A						D
Oh I get drunk most every night,            seems like all we do is fight

       A					  E
The more I drink, the less I feel blue

         A					D
Sometimes I feel like an awful fool,        spendin' my life on an old bar stool

        A		        E				      A
And yes I guess,  they oughta  name  a  drink  after  you	(Bloody Mary!)

2)
						D
If this date were to be our last,              I'd never sit down this glass

      A							 E
It'd take all the booze in the world   t' ferget you

	  A					D
You've left my heart a vacant lot,            I'll fill it with another shot

       A			       E					A
And yes I guess, they oughta name a drink after you	(Near Beer!)

(Instrumental Verse - A,	        D,	A,	  E,		A,	D,	A,	E,	A

				D
Looks like I had my fill,        guess I better pay my bill

	   A						E
When I started out, I only meant to have a few

	A					D
Someone just said that you left town,     I better get      a double round

        A		       E					A
And yes I guess, they oughta name a drink after you

			E				   A
Yes I guess, they oughta name a drink after you
