[Verse 1]
C GBack in the hills where the woods get thick
Am FBrewing shine in a still, growing smoke in the ditch
C GIt's a different way of life but it is what it is
Am FYou're either poor when you die or firewater rich
{Pre Chorus}
Dm C DCall us backwoods
F AmOr we're backwards
[Chorus]
F GWe've got white lightning running through our veins
C AmAnd we'll die trying to save our family name
F GWhere the whip-poor-will's will, the coyotes cry
C CWay back in the holler where the moon shines
[Verse 2]
C GI didn't choose this life, this lifе chose me
Am FTherе's a copper line where my roots run deep
C GFive generations of living like this
Am GI'm a hand-me-down, bootlegging son of a bitch
[Chorus]
F GWe've got white lightning running through our veins
C AmAnd we'll die trying to save our family name
F GWhere the whip-poor-will's will, the coyotes cry
C CWay back in the holler where the moon shines
[Post-Chorus]
C DWhoa-oh
C DWhoa-oh
C DWhoa-oh
C DWhoa-oh
[Pre-Chorus]
Dm C ACall us backwoods
F AmOr we're backwards
C D C AmBut none of that matters
[Chorus]
F G'Cause we've got white lightning running through our veins
C AmAnd we'll die trying to save our family name
F GWhen the whip-poor-will's will and them coyotes cry
CWay back in the holler, in the holler, in the holler
F GWe've got white lightning running through our veins
C AmAnd we'll die trying to save our family name
F GWhere the whip-poor-will's will and them coyotes cry
CWay back in the holler where the moon shine
[Outro]
C DBurns as bright as a bonfire flames
CIt's in my genes like an old grease stain
C GIt'll be that way 'til the day I die
C DWay back in the holler where the moon shines
CWhere the moon shines
