Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[D]I've been a m[Bm]oonshiner for[D]
seventeen [Em]long year
[Bm]I've spent [D]all my [Bm]money [D]on
whiskey [Em]and beer
in some lonesome hollow
I'll build me my still
[D]and I'll [Bm]make you a gallon
for a [D]two dol[Em]lar bill

[Verse 2]
I'll [D]go to some [Bm]grocery and
[D]drink with [Em]my friend
[D]no woman to [Bm]fol low me and
[D]see how [Em]I spend
God bless those pretty women,
I wish they were mine
their [D]breath is as [Bm]sweet
as the [D]dew on the [Em]vine

[Verse 3]
it's [D]cornbread when I'm [Bm]hungry,
corn [D]liquor when [Em]I'm dry
[D]green backs when I'm [Bm]hard up,
re[D]ligion when [Em]I die
the world is but a bottle,
life is but a dram
when the [D]bottle [Bm]is empty it
[D]ain't worth [Em]a damn[Bm][D]

[Verse 4]
I've been a [Bm]moonshiner
[D]for seventeen long [Em]year
[D]I've spent all my [Bm]money
[D]on whiskey [Em]and beer
in some lonesome hollow
I'll build me my still
and [D]I'll make [Bm]you a gallon
for a [D]two dollar [Em]bill
