Intro: (A)  (A)

Well I was (A) sent to a place in (Dm) North Carolina
To (E) check up on a moonshine (A) still
Still when I got there to (Dm) my suprise
I could (E) see a little light on the hill
Well the (D) fire was glowing and really I was knowing 
(A) I was really hot on the track
But (D) in D. C. they said it couldnt' be
But (E) I'll be the one to bring em back

 	 Cause I'm a revenooer (D) man
 	 I'm a revenooer (A) man
 	 I got a (D) badage in my (E) pocket
 	 And a (A) gun on my hip 	 
 	 (D) Damn moonsh(E)iners
 	 Better (A) never make a slip
 	 Cause I'm a revenooer (D) man
 	 (E) Yeah I get em if I (A) can

Well the (A) moon was shining bright
As I (Dm) looked down the river
I (E) noticed on the side of the (A) hill
I can see a red light that was (Dm) glowing bright
I (E) knew it had to be a still
Well the (D) people down the road said it wasn't far
But (A) I better know someone
Cause (D) when the moonshiners know I carry a star
I'll (E) bet my bottom dollar I'll have 'em on the run

 	 Cause I'm a revenooer (D) man
 	 I'm a revenooer (A) man
 	 I got a (D) badage in my (E) pocket
 	 And a (A) gun on my hip
 	 (D) Damn moonsh(E)iners
 	 Better (A) never make a slip
 	 Cause I'm a revenooer (D) man
 	 (E) Yeah I get em if I (A) can

Well when (A) I got there the (Dm) woods were bare
(E) Must've known I's on my (A) way
Well I heard the branches shatter
And they (Dm) started to scatter
I (E) heard two or three of them (A) say

 	 It's the revenooer (D) man
 	 It's revenooer (A) man
 	 He's got a (D) big 4(E)5 and (A) loads to fill
 	 (D) Dragging and sha(E)gging to an(A)other hill
 	 It's the revenooer (D) man
 	 (E) And he'll get us if he (A) can
 	 Yeah I'm the revenooer (D) man
 	 (E) And I'll get them if I (A) can (A)
