"Moonshiner" by the Scorpios (Joey Cape, Tony Sly (RIP), Jon Snodgrass, Brian Wahlstrom)
off of their self-titled album. Note: the final chord in each line is to be played
with the final word in the respective verse/chorus (it's going to be shifted out of
place when this is submitted).
Intro: Am F C G x 2
AmFC
I've been a moonshiner
CG
For seventeen long years
AmFC
I've spent all my money
CG
On whiskey and beer
FG
I go to some hollow
CF
And drink my still
AmFC
If the whiskey don't kill me
CG
I don't know what will
AmFC
I go to some barroom
CG
To drink with my friends
AmFC
Where the women can't follow
CG
To see what I spend
FG
God bless them pretty women
CF
I wish they was mine
AmFC
With breath as sweet as
CG
The dew on the vine
AmFC
Let me eat when I'm hungry
CG
Let me drink when I'm dry
AmFC
Two dollars when I'm hard up
CG
Religion when I die
FG
The whole world is a bottle
CF
And life is but a dram
AmFC
When the bottle gets empty
CG
It sure ain't worth a damn
Outro: Am F C G (close on G or Am)
