POP A TOP 
 
----Alan  Jackson 
 
G                C     D                        C                 G 
Pop a top again  I've just got time for one more round 
                          C        D 
Set 'em up my friend, then I'll be gone 
           C       D                    C          G 
And you can let some other fool sit down. 
 
 
G                             C           D            G 
I'd like for you to listen to a joke I heard today 
                                      C 
>From a woman who said she was through 
              D             G                                      C 
And calmly walked away, I tried to smile and did awhile 
             D             G                                           C 
But it felt so outta place, did you ever hear of a clown with teardrops 
D                  G 
streaming down his face. 
 
                                          
G                C       D                    C         G 
Pop a top again I think I'll have another round 
                          C     D 
Set 'em up my friend, then I'll be gone 
            C      D                     C       G 
And you can let some other fool sit down. 
 
                     (instrumental) 
 
G                           C              D                G 
Home for me its misery and here I'm wasting time 
                                        C 
Saw a row of fools on a row of stools 
     D                          G 
It's not what's on my mind 
                                      C              D               G 
But then you see her leaving me it's not what I prefer 
G                                       C                D 
G 
So it's either here just drinking beer or home remembering her. 
 
                            (repeat chorus)
