               MOONSHINERS
              GOODNIGHT, TEXAS


NOTE: To me in this song the banjo stands out more than the guitar.
   This was a request for this song to be done in standard tuning
   which I have done. A augmentedA lot of the song is done with pull offs and
   hammer ons and thus chords like DmDm would also become a Dsus2Dsus2
   when the pointer finger is pulled off the low E MajorE string. This
   would also apply when the pointer finger is pulled off the A minorAm
   chord making that an Asus2. I did not put them in but mentioned
   that here so as to nut clutter up the tab. Please keep that in
   mind when playing and rating this tab. Thanks.

VERSE:
 DmDm
Where were you when the saw mill burned?
      A minorAm            DmDm
I was out fighting with my grandpa`s gun
     G minorGm          DmDm
They can follow me as best they can
        A minorAm
But I can run quicker when there is no sun

Shine on

        A minorAm             DmDm
Ain`t the only way that the sherrif gets paid
    G minorGm         DmDm
You can try to hide who you are
          A minorAm

CHORUS:
 C majorC      DmDm
Where do the hound dogs eat
     A minorAm     A augmentedA
When the people are frail?
        DmDm
Where does the smoke from your lungs go
 A minorAm     A augmentedA
Once you exhale?
       G minorGm
What do the cockroaches do
   DmDm    A augmentedA
With no one `round?
          G minorGm
They live like the moonshiners
 DmDm     A augmentedA
Half underground

      G minorGm         DmDm
Yes it was me that burned it down
       A augmentedA
To confound everyone and make it well known

That after 33 years of this
      A augmentedA         A augmentedA A majorA A augmentedA A majorA A augmentedA A majorA
