Copper Kettle

verse 1: 

C         G      C          
Get you a copper kettle,    

C         G      C 
Get you a copper coil, 
E                     Am 
Fill it with new-made corn mash  
    Dm                G 
And never more you'll toil. 

Chorus: 
       Am               Em 
As you lay there by the juniper 
Am        C       E 
while the moon is bright, 
Am                G 
Watch them jugs a-filling 
Am     Em       Am 
In the pale moonlight. 

verse 2: 

C           G         C 
Build you a fire with hickory,  
C        G       C 
Hickory, ash and oak, 
E                     Am 
Don't use no green or rotten wood;  
        Dm             G 
They'll get you by the smoke. 

Chorus: 
       Am               Em 
As you lay there by the juniper 
Am        C       E 
while the moon is bright, 
Am                G 
Watch them jugs a-filling 
Am     Em       Am 
In the pale moonlight. 

verse 3: 
C         G       C 
My daddy, he made whiskey;  
C        G             C 
My grand-daddy, he did too. 
E                Am 
We ain't paid no whiskey tax  
      Dm               G 
Since seventeen ninety-two. 

Chorus: 
       Am               Em 
As you lay there by the juniper 
Am        C       E 
while the moon is bright, 
Am                G 
Watch them jugs a-filling 
Am     Em       Am 
In the pale moonlight.
