[Intro]
D D/F#
[Verse 1]
D Turpentine and dandelion wine, D/F# G I've turned the corner, an' I'm doin' fine. G D Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line; A D Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine. G D Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head, A D Going higher and higher 'til I'm dead.
[Verse 2]
D Sister Sue is short and stout, D/F# G She didn't grow up, she grew out. G D Momma says she's plain, but she's just being kind. A D Papa thinks she's pretty, but he's almost blind. G D Don't let her out much except at night. A D But I don't care 'cause I'm all right.
[Chorus]
D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A Young folks roll on the floor. D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A D Keep them hard times away from my door.
[Verse 3]
D Brother Gene is big and mean, D/F# G And he don't have much to say. G D He had a little woman who he whooped each day, A D But now she's gone away. G D Got drunk last night, kicked momma down the stairs, A D But I'm all right, so I don't care.
[Chorus]
D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A Young folks roll on the floor. D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A D Keep them hard times away from my door.
[Verse 4]
D Turpentine and dandelion wine, D/F# G I've turned the corner, an' I'm doin' fine. G D Shootin' at the birds on the telephone line; A D Pickin' 'em off with this gun o' mine. G D Got a fire in my belly and a fire in my head, A D Going higher and higher 'til I'm dead.
[Chorus]
D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A Young folks roll on the floor. D D/F# G D Oh, the sun shines bright on my old Kentucky home. A D Keep them hard times away from my door.
[Outro]
