Version 1
I DRINK ALONE
E
I drink alone, yeah with nobody else.
E9 D9 E
I drink alone, yeah with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah you know when I drink alone, I don't want nobody else.
E
Now every morning just before breakfast, I don't want no coffee or tea.
Just me and my good "Buddy Weiser", that's all I ever need.
E9 D9 E
Cause I drink alone, yeah with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself.
E
Well the other day I lay sleeping and I woke from a terrible dream,
so I called up my friend Jack Daniel's and his partner Jimmy Beam
E9 D9 E
and we drank alone, yeah with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I prefer to be by myself.
E
Yes the other night I got invited to a party, I stayed home instead.
Me and my pal Johnny Walker and his brothers Blacky and Red.
E9 D9 E
And we drank alone, yeah with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I don't want nobody else. Yeah
Jim - Instrumental 1
E
I got me a pet in my penthouse, he don't bother me.
He ain't no poodle or pony just a little old Wild Turkey
E9 D9 E
and we drink alone, yeah with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I don't want nobody else.
Jim - Instrumental 2
E
My whole family done give up on me, it don't make me feel to sad.
The only one who'll hang out with me is my dear Old Grand-Dad
E9 D9 E
and we drink alone, yes with nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I don't want nobody else.
C D E
Yeah, you know when I drink alone, I don't want nobody else.
C D E
Yeah I drink alone.
There's a bit more going on in this than is written here as in
the alternating between the E to E7 and the hammer,
the E9 = XXO43O to D9 = XXO21O to Open = XXOOOO to E then E7
and the fingerings of the C and the D.
I'd recommend watching George and Jim at play for the nuances -
