POP A TOP

G C D C G

Pop a top again Iâve just got time for one more round

G C D C

C G

Set ÎEm up my friend, then Iâll be gone and you can let some other fool sit

down.

G C D G

C

Iâd like for you to listen to a joke I heard today from a woman who said she

was through

D G C

D G

And calmly walked away, I tried to smile and did awhile and it felt so out

of place,

G C D

G

Did you ever hear of a clown with teardrops streaming down his face.

CHORUS

G C D C G

Pop a top again I think Iâll have another round

G C D C D

C G

Set Îem up my friend, then Iâll be gone and you can let some other fool sit

down.

( instrumental segment )

G C D G

C

Home for me its misery and here Iâm wasting time, saw a row of fools on a

row of stools

D G C

D G

Itâs not whatâs on my mind but then you see her leaving me itâs not what I

prefer

C D

G

So itâs either here just drinking beer or home remembering her.

CHORUS - then ãPop a top againä

NOTE: this song was recorded in the late sixties by a previous artist but

donât remember who it was, I think it was Buck Owens. Have fun!
