Chords, Guitar Tablature & Lyrics
____________________________________________________________________________________

I think that there are two electric guitars in this one. I'm going to show you the chords - you can take it from there. Sorry - no lead tab - I fingered out this stuff on a 12 string acoustic! Be sure to visit my tab page in order to understand how I write tablature on the web.

THE CHORDS:
 
(e f# g#) A E G A
A E G A
(FIDDLE & MANDOLIN INTRO)
 
A
down in the hills of the Ozarks
 
E
there are some women that'll have your heart
 
G A
all wrapped up in chains it's a shame
 
A
if you make the bad mistake of telling them
 
E
the crazy things you tell them
 
G A
when you're high on that homemade wine
 
G A
'cause when you're high on that homemade wine
 
G A
every woman will sure look fine
 
 
 
A
half standin' in my sleep
 
E
I'm lookin' at my feet
 
G A
and wonderin' where do I go from here
 
A
I've been walkin' for an hour
 
E
tryin' to find my shower
 
G A
so my head can't be on right yet
 
G A
it's that wine and I'll take all bets
 
G A
it's that wine that's gettin' to my head
 
A E G A
A E G A
G D A
G D A
(FIDDLE & MANDOLIN DITTY)
 
A E G A
(GUITAR DITTY)
 
 
A
made me a fifty gallon barrel
 
E
connected with an air hose
 
G A
and I had me a real good rig
 
A
went on a binge for one week
 
E
got to where I couldn't speak
 
G A
to anyone oh I was high
 
 
G A
it's that wine and I'll tell no lies
 
G A
take that wine if you want to get higher, higher
 
G A
it's that wine and I'll tell you no lies
 
G A
take that wine if you want to get high
 
 
A E G D A

TIPS:

Just about every chord symbol represents 4 beats...

If you know these chords in different positions, then try 'em out!

Playing high on the neck will compliment the mandolin and fiddle.

Playing low on the neck will compliment the electric guitars.

I hope you enjoyed playing this piece.

Remember, that by learning this song, you are helping to preserve the music of the Ozark Mountain Daredevils!

Thanks for stopping by - steve
