[Verse 1]
Am CI wiped away the tears like they was flies on the melon
G FAs she fell into my arms I’s buying what she was selling
Am CThe furrows deep and newly plowed
G FThere’s mercy in the seed put down
Am C..Washed in the blood of the things we kill
G FBe it time, or man, or that big coal hill
Am C..Go tend the youngins,..go jack your jaw
G FNo...sorrow here, no not none at all
[Chorus]
C F C FHoller Rose the pious moonshiner
C F C FHoller Rose the pious moonshiner
[Verse 2]
Am CUnto my wife I’ll shape the clay
G FHer golden flesh like...hickory splayed
Am CThe country blue in disposition
G FShe’s tall and green and...manifesting
Am C..What will I leave in my wake,
G FThe ravings of an idle hound?
Am C..What will I leave in my wake,
G FA thread that binds the lost to found?
[Chorus]
C F C FHoller Rose the pious moonshiner
C F C FHoller Rose the pious moonshiner

Am CLearn our boys the gospel sound
G FThe brimstone dance, the earth befouled
Am CBeneath these old sour quilts
C FIs a mess of marriage sweat
Am CYou’ve got to be willing to play the long game
G FYou can’t tuck tail and dive out of the frame
[Chorus]
