Drink Yer Glasses Empty

Written by Gordon Lightfoot

Capo on 2nd fret
	  		



Intro: G 

verse 1: 
                   C                    G   D  G 
Listen up and I'll tell you what you'll do  
             C    D            G 
Forget about music and alcohol too  
   C                           Am             D 
Forget about your baby, we got other work for you  
       G                 C               D                Em 
Better drink yer glasses empty now, it's time to rise and shine  
        G        C            D                   G 
There's one less cause in the world to be leaving for 


verse 2: 
               C        D              G 
It was back in '39 when I was one year old  
               C                      D                   G 
Sitting by the backyard fence and the world had turned so cold  
C                 Am             D                  G 
Drink yer glasses empty now, was all that they were told  
                  A                    D               G 
Drink yer glasses boys and girls, it's time to hit the sky 
               A                   D              C    ~ Am 
To the tune of thunder, there's no time to wonder why 


verse 3: 
     G                 C             G      D  G 
We'd love to take life over, that is plain 
             C      D             G 
Forget about sorrow, forget about pain  
C                             Am            D 
Watch a John Wayne movie to remind us once again 
       G                 C               D               Em 
Better drink yer glasses empty now, it's time to hit the line  
        G        C            D                   G 
You got one less cause in the world to be leaving for  
                  A                    D               G 
Drink yer glasses girls and boys, it's time to hit the sky  
               A                  D             C     ~ Am 
To the tune of thunder, there's a tear in every eye 


verse 4: 
                        C        G     D  G 
I'd like to take things one at a time  
             C      D             G 
Forget about reason, forget about rhyme  
C                              Am             D 
Beg, steal, or borrow you got another hill to climb  
   G                 C               D               Em 
So drink yer glasses empty now, it's time to hit the road  
        G        C            D                   G 
There's one less cause in the world to be leaving for  
                  A                    D               G 
Drink yer glasses girls and boys, it's time to hit the sky  
               A                   D              C    ~ Am 
To the tune of thunder, there's no time to wonder why 


verse 5: 
                       C     G     D  G 
We'd like to take life over again  
             C               D            G 
When time of war had passed away into the rain  
    C                             Am             D 
And watch a John Wayne movie to remind us of the plains 
     G                 C               D                Em 
Just drink yer glasses empty now, it's time to rise and shine  
        G        C            D                   G 
There's one less cause in the world to be leaving for
