VERSE:
Am                 C
I got a match and I've got a knife
     F                          F
I’m going to the backwoods for some kind of fight
 Am                    C
Shadow behind and the moon out in front
            F                    F
Lights the path of a man on the run

VERSE:
     Am                    C
They saw me in Winchester unload the car
      F                            F
They saw me sell the boxes to the bar
     Am                   C
And followed me back on Route 33
   F                         G  G
A car full of agents huntin' me

VERSE:
       Am                     C
And I sprinted from door and ran straight for the hills
             F                       F
Where last spring there I'd hid my still
   Am                       C
I hear these men, they take no one alive
       F                   F
So I guess I got one more surprise

Am C F F


VERSE:
   Am                       C
I poured all the shine and tipped all the stills
         F                         F
Lit the fuse that’ll blow up the whole damn hill
     Am                         C
The marshall and his men, they came storming in
       F                        F
Guns blazing, killing me with a 9m-mill

Am C F G G


BDA K:
 F                 C
Gander 'round and what do you see?
       Am                         G
White lightning in the nighttime sky
 F                  C
Cover your ears or you will hear
       Am                   G
Those gunshots echo in the night
        F          C       Am  G
A last bite of my federal fight
        F          C       Am  G
A last bite of my federal fight
        Am         F       C   G  G
A last bite of my federal fight
