deliverance: a love song
(INTRO) G Am C D G
G Am
it's another perfect day of moonshine and revelry
C D G
here in the North Georgia mountains again
G Am
there's family and friends no strangers to greet
C D G
raw beauty as far as my tired eyes can see…
G Am
we got dueling banjos and distasteful jokes
C D G
not a thought in the world 'bout the more privileged folk
and tonight, if we're lucky,
Am C
there will be someone to squeal like a pig
D G
at the end of a gun.
(CHORUS)
C D
I got nothin' on my mind
C D
an gut full of moonshine
C G D
a forgotten place in time
G
where all I see…where all I see is mine.
(repeat INTRO) G Am C D G
G Am
I don't wonder how it is that the other half lives
C D
'cause my still works harder and relief is what it
G
gives
G Am
so judge, if you must, but don't break down 'round
here
C D
'cause we'll cut your throat and dress you out like a
G
deer…
G Am
I've seen that movie with Beatty and Burt
C D G
will you still laugh at us when it's your turn to hurt?
G Am
if some destination should bring you our way
C D G
we'll show you the horrors and scars that do not fade.
(CHORUS)
C D
I got nothin' on my mind
C D
an gut full of moonshine
C G D
a forgotten place in time
G
where all I see…where all I see is mine.

G Am
it's another perfect day of moonshine and revelry
C D G
here in the North Georgia mountains again
G Am
there's family and friends no strangers to greet
C D G
raw beauty as far as my tired eyes can see…
