George Jones - White Lightning Chords

[Intro]
A
 
A
Well, in North Carolina, way back in the hills
 
Lived my old pappy, and he had him a still
   D
We brewed white lightnin' 'til the sun went down
                   A   N.C.
And then he'd fill him a jug and he'd pass it around
E                        D
Mighty, mighty pleasin', pappy's corn squeezin'
N.C.                         A
Whshhhoooh..(hiccup) white lightnin'
 
[Chorus]
          D
Well, the G men, T men, revenuers, too
A
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
          E
They were lookin', tryin' to book him
       D
But my pappy kept a-cookin'
N.C.                         A
Whshhhoooh... white lightnin'

[Verse 2]
A
Well, I asked my old pappy why he called his brew
A
White lightnin' 'stead of mountain dew
D
I took a little sip and right away I knew
      A    N.C.
As my eyes bugged out and my face turned blue
E                        D                     A
Mighty, mighty pleasin', pappy's corn squeezin'
N.C                           A
Whshhhoooh... white lightnin'
 
[Chorus]
          D
Well, the G men, T men, revenuers, too
A
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
          E
They were lookin', tryin' to book him
       D                   A
But my pappy kept a-cookin'
N.C.
Whshhhoooh... white lightnin'
 
[Verse 3]
A
Well, a city slicker came and he said "I'm tough
A
I think I wanna taste that powerful stuff"
   D
He took one s-slug and he drank it right down
      A     N.C.
And I heard him a-moanin' as he hit the ground
E                        D                     A
Mighty, mighty pleasin', pappy's corn squeezin'
N.C.                                A
Whshhhoooh..(hiccup) white lightnin'
 
[Chorus]
    D
The G men, T men, revenuers, too
A
Searchin' for the place where he made his brew
          E
They were lookin', tryin' to book him
       D                   A
But my pappy kept a-cookin'
N.C.                         A
Whshhhoooh... white lightnin'
