Drink A Beer Chord Chart by Luke Bryan

Welcome to my Drink a Beer chord chart by Luke Bryan. This is a great song. There are some intermediate picking things that happen in the intro that I’m not going to cover in this chord chart.

If I work out a video lesson, I would be more than happy to go over that.

The chords in his are pretty easy.

I could recommend using:

The 4 fingered G (320033) chord to go a long with the Cadd9 (X32033)for a brighter sound. If you have no clue what I’m talking about, a regular C and G will work perfectly fine. In the intro, the G chord he uses is more like a Dsus2/G (3X0230) and the C chord is more like a Dsus2/C (X@0230).

Beginner Strumming:

Verse 1:
G                                                 Cadd9
  When I got the news today,
                                              Dsus4
I didn't know what to say,
                                     Cadd9
So I just hung up the phone.
G
   I took a walk to clear my head
Cadd9                                                         Dsus4
     And this is where the walking lead.
                                            Cadd9
Can't believe you're really gone
Cadd9  (one strum)                      
I don't feel like going home

Chorus:
                      G
So I'm gonna sit right here,
              Dsus4
On the edge of this pier
Em                              Cadd9              G
     And watch the sunset disappear
Dsus4 (strum once) G    Cadd9  Dsus4  Cadd9
And drink a beer.

Verse:
G
    Funny how the good ones go,
Cadd9                                                        Dsus4                
    Too soon but the good lord knows
                             Cadd9
The reasons why I guess.
G
   Sometimes the greater plan
Cadd9
   Is kinda hard to understand
Dsus4                                 Cadd9
   Right now it don't make sense.
            Cadd9                            
I can't make it all make sense.
 
Chorus:

And all the times that we used to
