Rye Whiskey

     Am             C           G
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll 
            Am
drink when I'm dry,
        Am               C     
If the hard times don't kill me, 
       G           Am
I'll lay down and die
      Am            C       
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
     G      Em
whiskey I cry
        Am                 C      
If you don't give me rye whiskey I
   G         Am
 surely will die

[Verse]
      Am          C         G    
I'll tune up my fiddle and rosin 
   Am
my bow
   Am           C         G       Am
I make myself welcome, wherever I go
     Am              C          G
Beefsteak when I'm hungry, red 
             Em
booze when I'm dry
   Am              C        
Dubloons when I'm hard up and 
   G              Am
religion when I die
     Am             C          G 
They say I drink whiskey, my 
        Am
money's my own
     Am              C         
And them that don't like me, can 
   G         Am
leave me alone
   Am               C          G 
Sometimes I drink whiskey, 
            Em
sometimes I drink rum
    Am             C          
Sometimes I drink brown ale and 
    G          Am
other times none

[Chorus]
     Am             C           G
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll 
            Am
drink when I'm dry,
        Am               C     
If the hard times don't kill me, 
       G           Am
I'll lay down and die
      Am            C       
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
     G       Em
whiskey I cry
        Am                  C     
If you don't give me rye whiskey I
   G          Am
 surely will die

[Verse]
    Am          C          G     
But if I get boozey, my whiskey's
    Am
 my own
     Am              C         
And them that don't like me, can 
   G         Am
leave me alone

Jack o' Diamonds, Jack o' Daniel's
   G           Em
 I know you of old
        Am             C       
You've robbed me poor pockets of 
    G         Am
silver and gold
     Am           C              
Oh whiskey, you villain, you've 
G         Am
been my downfall
        Am                C       
You've kicked me, you've cuffed 
         G           Am
me, but I love you for all
        Am          C         G  
If the ocean were whiskey and I 
      Em
was a duck
     Am           C         G    
I'd dive to the bottom and drown 
        Am
to get drunk

[Chorus]
     Am             C           G
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll 
            Am
drink when I'm dry,
        Am               C     
If the hard times don't kill me, 
        G           Am
I'll lay down and die
        Am         C        
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
    G        Em
whiskey I cry
        Am                 C      
If you don't give me rye whiskey I
   G         Am
 surely will die

[Verse]
    Am         C           G     
My foot in a stirrup, her scarf 
      Am
in my hand
   Am               C          
I pray thee sweet Lillie, she'll 
   G          Am
find a good man
      Am           C             
Her parents don't like me, they 
G           Em
say I'm too poor
   Am        C         G         Am
Unfit and unworthy to enter her door
       Am            C        
Sweet milk when I'm hungry, rye 
     G         Am
whiskey when dry
      Am             C         
If a tree don't fall on me, I'll 
   G           Am
live 'till I die
     Am           C          G   
I'll buy my own whiskey and make 
        Em
my own stew
     Am          C           
And when I get drunk all, it's 
    G        Am
because of you

[Chorus]
     Am             C           G
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll 
            Am
drink when I'm dry,
        Am               C     
If the hard times don't kill me, 
       G           Am
I'll lay down and die
      Am           C        
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
    G       Em
whiskey I cry
        Am                 C      
If you don't give me rye whiskey I
  G          Am
 surely will die

[Verse]
     Am             C           G
I'll drink my own whiskey and 
          Am
finish your wine
     Am            C         
Some ten thousand bottles I've 
    G           Am
killed in my time
     Am           C          G   
I've no wife to quarrel, no 
      Em
babies to bawl
     Am           C           G  
The best way of livin's with no 
       Am
wife at all
     Am         C        G     Am
On Mullacor Mountain I wander alone
     Am           C          G   
I'm drunk as the devil, oh, leave
     Am
 me alone
        Am              C      
You may boast of your wisdom and 
   G           Em
brag of your blood
       Am        C              G
We'll both be forgotten in the 
            Am
wake of the flood

[Chorus]
     Am             C           G
I'll eat when I'm hungry, I'll 
            Am
drink when I'm dry,
    Am               C            
If things don't get better, I'll 
G           Am
lay down and die
      Am           C        
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
    G        Em
whiskey I sigh
         Am             C      
If I've run out of rye whiskey I 
   G            Am
might as well die

[Otro]
      Am           C        
Rye whiskey, rye whiskey, rye 
    G       Am
whiskey I cry
        Am                 C      
If you don't give me rye whiskey I
   G         Em
 surely will die...
