[Verse 1]
[F#m]Get yo[Bm]u a [D]copper kettle,
get you a copper coil
[Bm]Covered [A]wit[F#]h new -made corn ash[Bm],
and nevermore [A]you will toil
You'll [G]just lay there by [D]the juniper
[G]While the moon [A]is bright[D]
[G]Watch them jugs [A]a -filling
In [F#m]the pale moon[Bm]light
[D]Get you a fire [Bm]of hickory
[D]Get you a fire of oak
[Bm]Don't [A]use[F#] no green or rotten woo[Bm]d,
[A]they'll find [G]you by [A]the smoke.
[G]While you lay there by [D]the juniper,
[G]while the moon [D]is bright,
[G]watch them jugs of [A]fillin'
in [F#]the pale moon[Bm]light.
[D]My grandpappy he made whiskey,
my daddy he made it [Bm]too.[A]
[F#]We ain't paid no whiskey [Bm]tax
since [A]1792.
We [G]just lay there by the [D]juniper
while [G]the [D]moon is bright.
[G]What's in jugs of [A]fillin'
[Bm]in the pale moonlight?
[D]Get you a copper [Bm]kettle,
[D]get you a copper [Bm]coil
[A]Covered [F#]with new -made corn [Bm]mash,
and nevermore [Em]you [A]will toil
You'll [G]just lay there [D]by the juniper
[G]While the moon [D]is bright
[G]Watch the jugs [A]a -fillin'
[Bm]In the pale [F#m]moonligh[D]t[Bm]
[D][F#][B]
