C
Well, I think you oughta try whiskey babe
GC

C
well, gin sounds kinda risky babe
GC
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
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
[Verse 1]
CGC
Well, whiskey makes me feel as though I'm smart and tough and tall (Hah!)
CDG
It makes me think of things I never thought about at all. (that's true)
CFC
And I don't know why anyone wouldn't wanna at least try
CGC
a drop of corn or rye or wheat or barley before they die
CGC
whiskey makes you do things that perhaps you mighta notta
CDG
there's a devil inside every glass and fight in every bottle
CFC
whiskey makes you act as though the whole world owes you something (it does)
CGC
and I love you, but when you're that high you ain't all that, dumplin'
[Chorus]
C
Well, I think you oughta try whiskey babe
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
C
well, gin sounds kinda risky babe
GC
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
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
[Verse 2]
CGC
Gin seems so sophisticated, classy, crisp and clean
CDG
hints of piney juniper and England and the Queen
CFC
It makes me feel so ladylike and it gives me what I need
CGC
And lord knows with how we're living, I'll take any help I see
CGC
When you're drinking gin you put your nose up in the air (well)
CDG
You strut around the room and act like I'm not even there (sometimes you're not)
CFC
You slur your words and paw at every rich man through the door
CGC
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
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
C
well, gin sounds kinda risky babe
GC
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
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
C
I think you oughta try whiskey babe
GC
well, I think you oughta try gin
