Copperhead Road -  Katie Smith chords
Start Jamming...
Okay, we'll come back over here.
We'll be right here.
We'll be here.
We'll be giddy by then.
[G] [D] So it's going to be fine, but But [G] it's
[D]
[G] [D]
Don't leave Petty Moore
Same as my daddy and daddy before
You hardly ever saw granddaddy down here
He'd only come a town about twice a year
He'd been a beast in some copper line
Everybody knew that he made moonshine
[G] Now the Reverend Eddie Bent
[D] He headed up a hollow where that thing had
[G] Spent all my time, but I've been told
[D] He'd never come back from Copperhead Road
[A]
[A] [D] Now Danny Lewisky and the big black Dodge
They bought it at an auction at a Mason's Lodge
Johnson County Sheriff painted on the side
Shot caught a primer and it looked just like
Well him and my uncle pulled that engine down
And I still remember that rumbling sound
[G] Well the sheriff came around and [D] heard his mama crying
That something wasn't [G] right
He headed down to Knoxville with his wiggly [D] lock
And smell the whiskey burning down Copperhead Road
[A] [D]
[A] [D]
They dropped the white trash first around here anyway
I'd done two, two, three in Vietnam
I came home with a brand new plan
I'd take a seat from Columbia, Mexico
Then I'm in a hollow down on Copperhead Road
[G] Well the DEA's got a chopper in the [D] air
I wake up screaming like I'm back over [G] there
I learned a thing or two from Charlie, don't you [D] know
You better stay away from Copperhead Road
[N]
