Tom: Am
C G C
Get you a copper kettle,
C G C
Get you a copper coil,
E Am
Fill it with new-made corn mash
Dm G
And never more you'll toil.
CHORUS:
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am C E
while the moon is bright,
Am G
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
VERSE 2:
C G C
Build you a fire with hickory,
C G C
Hickory, ash and oak,
E Am
Don't use no green or rotten wood;
Dm G
They'll get you by the smoke.
CHORUS:
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am C E
while the moon is bright,
Am G
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
VERSE 3:
C G C
My daddy, he made whiskey;
C G C
My grand-daddy, he did too.
E Am
We ain't paid no whiskey tax
Dm G
Since seventeen ninety-two.
CHORUS:
Am Em
As you lay there by the juniper
Am C E
while the moon is bright,
Am G
Watch them jugs a-filling
Am Em Am
In the pale moonlight.
