"One Beer" Copyright J. C. Martin 2006 G VERSE I (Give me) one beer for the pain C One beer for the road D7 G And one beer for Mary J. Blige, the queen of hip hop soul G One beer for the devil C One beer for the Lord D7 G And one beer for every backslidin' Pentecostal, Jack Morman fool I've ever known G It harshes my mellow CHORUS C I chased the dragon to the store D7 A country boy down at seven-eleven G Drinkin' his way down Desolation Road G It harshes my mellow C It's like havin' Satan walk in my front door D7 A country boy down at seven-eleven G Drinkin' his way down Desolation Road G One beer for flag and country VERSE II C One beer for all the girls I've known D7 And one beer for the Dixie Chicks G The Queens of Texas Soul G I rode a dragon to the party VERSE III C I looked a Black woman in the eye D7 G She said, embrace the mystery of a delicious Nubian night G I drove my Oldsmobile down to Mexico C I looked a fortune teller right in the eye D7 She said, embrace the mystery G Of a sultry Tiajuana night G VERSE I (And I said) one beer for the pain C One beer for the road D7 G And one beer for Mary J. Blige, the queen of hip hop soul G One beer for Old Glory VERSE IV C One beer for the Rose of San Antone D7 G One beer for Canada and one beer for Mexico (Lead on G-C-D7-G) G One beer for the devil C One beer for the Lord D7 G And one beer for every backslidin' Pentecostal, Jack Morman fool I've ever known G It harshes my mellow CHORUS C I chased the dragon to the store D7 A country boy down at seven-eleven G Drinkin' his way down Desolation Road G It harshes my mellow C It's like inviting Satan in my front door D7 A country boy down at seven-eleven G Drinkin' his way down Desolation Road G ............It harshes my mellow (soft ending)
