  			(verse 1) 
D 
We'd been drinking all day, 
 
And my buddy said hey, 
                            G 
Won't you look at her over there, 
                A 
Oh man she's a queen, 
 
I said you could not mean, 
                           D 
That girl with the purple hair, 
 
He said she's so fine, 
 
Well he's lost his mind, 
                                   G 
It's been a while since he's been sober, 
         D              A                D 
I guess beauty's in the eye of the beer holder, 
 
 
(Chorus) 
                G 
Man she's all tatooed, 
 
She's wearin' army boots, 
         D 
A mini skirt and some knee high socks, 
          G 
She's got nose rings, 
 
And other pierced things, 
                E7               A             
Looks like she fell in a tackle box, 
             D 
He said she looks just right, 
 
Beyond the natural light, 
                                G 
It makes her look like a centerfolder, 
         D              A                D 
I guess beauty's in the eye of the beer holder, 
 
 
(verse 2) 
So I said sit down, 
'cause that last round, 
It must have sent you clean over the edge, 
And every sip that's crossed your lips, 
Made you forget what you just said, 
Man don't you know just a few drinks ago, 
She was the one you were calling rover, 
And that proves, 
Beauty's in the eye of the beerholder, 
 
 
(Chorus) 
                G 
Man she's all tatooed, 
 
She's wearin' army boots, 
         D 
A mini skirt and some knee high socks, 
          G 
She's got nose rings, 
 
And other pierced things, 
                E7               A             
Looks like she fell in a tackle box, 
             D 
He said she looks just right, 
 
Beyond the natural light, 
                                G 
It makes her look like a centerfolder, 
         D              A                D 
I guess beauty's in the eye of the beer holder,
