[Verse 1]
      C                                   G                   C
Well, whiskey makes me feel as though I'm smart and tough and tall (Hah!)
   C                                D                G
It makes me think of things I never thought about at all. (that's true)
    C                                F              C
And I don't know why anyone wouldn't wanna at least try
  C                               G                  C
a drop of corn or rye or wheat or barley before they die

C                                G                  C
whiskey makes you do things that perhaps you mighta notta
C                                      D              G
there's a devil inside every glass and fight in every bottle
C                                   F                         C
whiskey makes you act as though the whole world owes you something (it does)
      C                                    G                      C

[Chorus]

[Verse 2]
C                           G                  C
Gin seems so sophisticated, classy, crisp and clean
C                          D               G
hints of piney juniper and England and the Queen
C                                   F               C
It makes me feel so ladylike and it gives me what I need
    C                                           G          C
And lord knows with how we're living, I'll take any help I see

C                                     G              C
When you're drinking gin you put your nose up in the air (well)
C                                      D            G
You strut around the room and act like I'm not even there (sometimes you're not)
C                                    F                    C
You slur your words and paw at every rich man through the door
C                                      G             C
if I want a taste that bitter, I'll go find a two by four

[Chorus]
     C
Well, I think you oughta try whiskey babe
      G                     C
well, I think you oughta try gin
      C

       G                C
ah, but whiskey makes me cringe
         F
yeah, but whiskey makes you frisky babe
    C
oh, much to my chagrin
C
I think you oughta try whiskey babe
      G                     C
well, I think you oughta try gin


C
I think you oughta try whiskey babe
