Moonshine Still                 Phil Carmen 1986

Verse 1
Dm                          F        C                  Dm  
There's an old still in the valley beside my daddy's grave 
       F            C             Dm
And a light burning slow, burning slow
                            F             C                  Dm
It's the one thing that was left me, as I came back from the war 
         F              C            Dm
And It’s still  burning slow burning slow.

Chorus1
   Bb               F            Bb                F
No way could Billie ever need a moonshine man like me?
   Bb   F         Gm        Dm       C    
Illegal moonshine still you bring me down.

Verse 2
    Dm              F               C              Dm
Hey Billie, how I,d loved her and I had to leave behind
       F               C             Dm
And my love ‘s burning slow, burning slow

I tried working for a living even tried to sing the blues
         F             C             Dm
From my heart burning slow, burning slow.
                   F                C                  Dm
Turning music into money, couldn't make her change her mind 
          F          C            Dm
And it's all burning slow burning slow.
