Pop A Top 4

Pop a top again I've just got time for one more round
Set 'em up my friend, then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down.
I'd like for you to listen to a joke I heard today
>From a woman who said she was through
And calmly walked away,
I tried to smile and did awhile
But it felt so outta place, did you ever hear of a clown
with teardrops streaming down his face.
CHORUS
Pop a top again I think I'll have another round
Set 'em up my friend, then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down.
(instrumental)
Fiddle G C D G
Guitar G C D G
G C D G TO A
Modulate to “A”
Home for me its misery and here I'm wasting time
Saw a row of fools on a row of stools
It's not what's on my mind
But then you see her leaving me it's not what I prefer
So it's either here just drinking beer or home remembering
her.
(repeat chorus in A)
CHORUS
Pop a top again I think I'll have another round
Set 'em up my friend, then I'll be gone
And you can let some other fool sit down.
Pop a top again

Dear Greg,
I realize there are 3 other transcriptions of Pop A Top, but there were some chords missing on them and not one of the modulates like the recording.
