From: mhoffman@encore.com (Mike Hoffman) Subject: Re: REQ: Beer Drinkin' and Hell Raisin' -- ZZ TOP The rhythm is repetitious, a straightforward 12 bar blue pattern. I don't play the solo on this one, just the rhythm, so that's all I've provided. I play it with these chords: Gm7 075700 G X7999X F X5777X C5 57XXXX C6 59XXXX D5 79XXXX D6 711XXXX BEER DRINKERS AND HELL RAISERS ZZTOP Intro (twice) Em7 groove, ending with: ------------------------ ------------------------ ------------------------ --------------5~~~------ ------5-7p5h7----------- --5-7-------------------

^Gm7If you see me walkin' down the line, with my fav'rite honky tonk in mind,

well, I'll be here around suppertime

with my ^Gm7can of dinner and a ^Gbunch ^Fof fine.

C5 C6 C5 C6 etc. Gm7 Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah. D5 D6 D5 D6 C5 C6 C5 C6 Gm7 (with intro riff) Uh-huh-huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me? The crowd gets loud when the band gets right, steel guitar cryin' through the night. Yeah, try'n to cover up the corner fight but ev'rything's cool 'cause they's just tight. Beer drinkers and hell raisers, yeah. Huh, baby, don't you wanna come with me? Ah, play it boy. (Solo) The joint was jumpin' like a cat on hot tin. Lord, I thought the floor was gonna give in. Soundin' a lot like a House Congressional 'cause we're experimental and professional. Beer drinkers, hell raisers, yeah. Well, baby, don't you wanna come with me?
