         G
DOWN THE ROAD HERE FROM ME THERE'S AN OLD HOLLOW TREE
          C                    G
WHERE YOU LAY DOWN A DOLLAR OR TWO

IF YOU HUSH UP YOUR MUG THEY WILL FILL UP YOUR JUG
               D7           G
WITH THAT GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW


               - - CHORUS - - 

     G
THEY CALL IT THAT GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW
    C                       G
AND THEM THAT REFUSE IT ARE FEW

YOU MAY GO ROUND THE BEND
                                            D7       G
BUT YOU'LL COME BACK AGAIN FOR THE GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW




       G
WAY UP ON THE HILL THERE'S AN OLD WHISKEY STILL
        C                     G
THAT IS RUN BY A HARD WORKING CREW

YOU CAN TELL IF YOU SNIFF AND YOU GET A GOOD WHIFF
                         D7           G
THAT THEY'RE MAKING THAT OLD MOUNTAIN DEW


               - - CHORUS - -

        G
THE PREACHER CAME BY WITH A TEAR IN HIS EYE
        C                     G
HE SAID THAT HIS WIFE HAD THE FLU

WE TOLD HIM HE OUGHT TO GIVE HER A QUART
             D7           G
OF THAT GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW

               - - CHORUS - -

       G
MY BROTHER MORT IS SAWED OFF AND SHORT
       C                   G
HE MEASURES JUST FOUR FOOT TWO

BUT HE THINKS HE'S A GIANT WHEN THEY GIVE HIM A PINT
             D7           G
OF THAT GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW

               - - CHORUS - -

     G
MY UNCLE BILL HAS A STILL ON THE HILL
         C                    G
WHERE HE RUNS OFF A GALLON OR TWO

THE BIRDS IN THE SKY GET SO HIGH THEY CAN'T FLY
             D7           G
ON THAT GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW

               - - CHORUS - -

        G
MY AUNT JANE HAS A BRAND NEW PERFUME
       C                       G
IT HAS SUCH A SWEET SMELLING P U

IMAGINE HER SURPRISE WHEN SHE HAD IT ANALYZED
            D7           G
IT WAS GOOD OLD MOUNTAIN DEW


               - - CHORUS - -
