Moonshiner by Punch Brothers
Moonshiner
Capo one
G C
I’ve been a moonshiner
G
For seventeen long years
D G
I've spent all my money
D
On whiskey and beer
G C
I'll go to some hollow
D D7
And set up my still
G C
And I'll sell you a gallon
D D7
For a ten dollar bill
Then I'll go to a bar room
And drink with my friends
Where the women can't follow
And see what I spend
God bless them pretty women
I wish one was mine
Because their breath is as sweet
As the dew on the vine
Give me food when I'm hungry
Give me drink when I'm dry
A dollar when I'm hard up
Religion when I die
If this whole world's a bottle
And life's but a dram
When the bottle is empty
It sure ain't worth a damn
I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I've spent all my money
On whiskey and beer
I'll go to some hollow
And set up my still
If the whiskey don't kill me
I don't know what will

Then I'll go to a bar room

God bless them pretty women
I wish one was mine
Because their breath is as sweet
As the dew on the vine
Give me food when I'm hungry
Give me drink when I'm dry
A dollar when I'm hard up
Religion when I die (and only then)
If this whole world's a bottle
And life's but a dram
When the bottle is empty
It sure ain't worth a damn
I've been a moonshiner
For seventeen long years
I've spent all my money
On whiskey and beer
I'll go to some hollow
And set up my still
If the whiskey don't kill me
Am D
I don't know what will
