Chords

To avoid C#m and B, I've written all chords 4 frets lower. So playing along a recording, please |Intro| | Am | C | C | G | | Am | C | C | G | | F | G | C | F | | Am | C | C | G | [Verse 1]
 Am               C
Hell I've been a moonshiner

                    G
For seventeen long years

Am           C
And I spent all my money

                  G
On a whiskey and beer.

  F           G
I go to some hollow

     C          F
And set up my still

    Am                C
And if whiskey won't kill me

        C               G
Then I don't know what will.
[Verse 2]
     Am     C
So I go to some park

                   G
To drink with my friend

          Am        C
Where the women oh won't follow

                  G
To see what I've spent

     F                G
God bless the pretty women

   C              F
I wish they were mine

       Am        C
Their breath is just as sweet

                   G
As the dew on the vine.
[Verse 3]
   Am              C
So let me eat when I'm hungry

                        G
Let me drink when I am dry

       Am              C
It is green grass when I harvest

                     C
And religion when I die

      F                G
This whole world is a bottle

     C             F
And life is but a dram

         Am          C
When the bottle gets empty

                       G
It sure ain't worth a damn.
[Interlude] | Am | C | C | G | | Am | C | C | G | | F | G | C | F | | Am | C | C | G | [Verse 4]
           Am           C
And so I'd better moonshine

                    G
For seventeen long years

Am           C
And I spent all my money

                  G
On a whiskey and beer.

  F           G
I go to some hollow

     C          F
And set up my still

    Am                C
And if whiskey won't kill me

        C               G
Then I don't know what will.
[Outro]
      Am
No it will.
