  DRINKIN' BONE      Tracy Byrd

       F                              Bb              
It's Friday evening six o'clock   And all my friends are twisting off
 F                                C
I'm at the house just turning on t.v.
F                                     Bb  
Well they all wonder why I've changed How many times must I explain
       F           C           F
It's basic honky tonking anato-my


CHORUS:
       F                             Bb
The drinkin bone's connected to the party bone
      F                             C
The party bone's connected to the staying out all night long
     F                              Bb  
She won't think it's funny and I'll wind up all alone
           F              C              Bb      F    
And the lonely bone's connected to the drinking bone


     F                               Bb
Hey two plus two is always four And down is south and up is north
  F                             C 
Thirty-two degrees is freezing cold
     F                                     Bb
You play with fire you wind up burned The early bird gets the worm
          F                     C      F    
But the only thing you really need to know is

to chorus to lead F Bb F C F Bb 
         F                                         C C C C C   
yea now sing it with me let's make sure you know
to ending

ENDING:

           F              C                
And the lonely bone's connected to
