             Beer Barrel Polka

Verse 1:

 6   -5#   6  5     6 -5# 6  5    
There's a garden, what a garden,

6 -5#   6  7 -8 7    7    -7
on ly happy faces bloom there. 

 -7    7    -7 7  -8 7   7    -7    
And there's never an y room there,

-7 7  -7 -6 -6 -7  -6    7    
for a worry or a gloom there. 

 6    -5#   6  5  6    -5#    6   5 
Oh, there's music and there's dancing,

6  -5  6   7   -8   7  7 -7
and a lot of sweet romancing. 

 -8   7#   -8   7   7 -7      
When they play the polka, 

  -6      -7 -6  6    7     
they'all get in the swing.

6 6#   -6   6#   -6   -5   5  -4   -6  
Ev'ry time they hear that com-pa-| pa,

-5 -5# 6 -5#  6    5  -4  4 6
ev'ry bo dy feels so tra-la-la.

 7   -8   7   -7    -8    -6  6  -7   
They want to throw their cares a-way,

 7   -8  7  -7 -8 -6 -6b  6  
they all go lah-de-ah-de-ay.

 6    6#   -6  6# -6 -5  5  -4   -6    
Then they hear a rumble on the floor, 

-5  -5#   6  -5#  6      5     -4  4  6 
it's the big surprise they're waiting for.

 7   -8  7   -7 -8   -6  6  -7 
And all the couples form a ring,

 7    -8  7   -7     6    -6   -7    7
for miles a-round you'll hear them sing -

Chorus:

-7 7 -7  7  -7  7  -8  
Roll ou ut the barrel,

 7    -8  7  -8 7  -7   -7b 
we'll have a barrel of  fun. 

7#-8  7# -8  7   -8 8     
Roll ou ut the barrel, 

  -8   8   -8   8   -8  7#  7
we've got the blues on the run. 

-7 7 -7 7 -7 7 -8    
Zing boom Terrara 

  7  -8 7  -8    7  -6   -8
join in a glass of good cheer.

 6   -6   -7b  7   8   -8  -8 7   
Now it's time to roll the barrel,

 -7  7    -8    8   -9 
for the gang's all here.   
Play on a harmonica— watch which holes to blow & draw, with sound
