Moonshiners Life

G                        C       
A moonshiner's life is a hell of 
                D        
a life when you got those 
              G
moonshiner's blues
G                                 
Yeah you're always on the run and 
C
can't trust no one
D                              
When you're making that good ol' 
           G
mountain dew
G                        C
A moonshiner's life is a hell of a 
life
D                             G
When you ain't got nothing to lose.
G                            C
Late in the night, when that moon is
 shining bright,
         D                      G
He'll be working on a batch for you.

A moonshiner's life is a hell of a 
life
D                                  
When he's fighting the law for his 
G
booze
G                            C
Late in the night, when that moon is
 shining bright,

He had those east Tennessee 
moonshiner's blues
                   C             
He had those those east Tennessee 
                        G
Cocke county jailhouse blues
              D                
He got popped with nine hundred 
gallon and I'm sure they took snort 
    G
or two
