Alcohol by Barenaked Ladies chord (text):

T1: Matt Rusteika, mattsb14@aol.com, Barenaked Ladies, Alchohol, 01/09/99


  S1: I've seen a lot of people request this one all over the place, and
  it's already in the archive, but it's way off so I had to set things
  right. On the CD they use guitar capo 2, and it sounds better that way.
  During the verses and intro the B7, D7, and A7 are all bar chords., INTRO
