A                         D                    A 
Well I' ve been known to tie one on and honky tonk till half past three 
 
                               E 
But the party don't get started till my baby pours her love on me 
 
            A          
She's a hundred proof, Lord, she's smooth 
 
                       D                   A 
She makes me moan all night long 
 
                             E                   A 
So I don' t need the booze to get a buzz on 
 
         D 
CHORUS: I tried it all from Tennessee Whiskey 
 
            D       E                    A 
       To Ozark Mountain Moonshine 
 
 
       But it's her sweet love that packs the punch 
 
             B                             E 
       And keeps me higher that a Georgia pine 
 
             A 
       My Southern Comfort don't come in a bottle 
 
                      D 
       I get a double shot of love home grown 
 
            A                      E                            A 
       So I don' t need the booze to get a buzz on 
 
 
SOLO: D   D   D E A    A    A    B    E    A     A    A     D     A     E   
 A    A 
 
     A 
My little country girl makes my head whirl 
 
    D                A 
And my knees begin to shake 
 
                              E 
I can't walk no chalk line, I ain't talkin' or thinkin' straight 
 
         A                                              D                A 
Yeah I'm hooked on my baby's love, there ain't nothing in the jug this 
strong 
 
             E                           A 
So I don' t need the booze to get a buzz on 
 
 
CHORUS 
 
A 
I wear a Blue Ribbon grin every now and then 
 
               D           A 
But I don't need that to get stoned 
 
A             E                   A 
No I don' t need the booze to get a buzz on 
 
A             E                        A 
No I don' t need the booze to get a buzz on
