Intro: Am E x4

Am               E          Am             E
I've been a moonshiner For seventeen long years
  Am           E           Am       E
I spent all my money on whiskey and beer
  Am         E           Am                  E
I go to some hollow  And set up my holy holy still
   Am              E               Am              E
If drinking do not kill me  Then I don't know what will
Am E x2 

Am           E             Am            E
I go to some bar room  And drink with my friends
    Am                             E          Am               E
Say if women and men would come to follow  To see what I might spend
    Am                  E      Am            E 
God bless them handsome men  I wish they was mine
      Am           E             Am                   E 
Their breath is as sweet as  The dew on the holy holy vine
Am E

Am                      E
You're already in hell, you're already in hell
Am                         E
I wish we could go to hell
Am                   E          Am                 E  
When the bottle gets empty Then life ain't worth a dram
