Chord/Tab song: Rye Whiskey

Tex Ritter - Rye Whiskey

[D] [A7] [D]
Jack o' [D]Diamonds Jack o' Diamonds and I know you of old
You've robbed my poor pockets of [A7]silver and [D]gold
Its a whiskey you villain you've been my downfall
You've kicked me you've cuffed me but I [A7]love you for [D]all.

Its a [D]whiskey Rye Whiskey Rye Whiskey I cry
If I dont get Rye Whiskey well I [A7]think I will [D]die. (Oooh hick)

[D] [A7] [D]
Its a [D]beefsteak when I'm hungry Rye Whiskey when I'm dry
Greenbacks when I'm hard up [A7]Heaven when I [D]die
Ill a goatee and a holler and a build me a still
Ill give you a gallon for a [A7]five dollar [D]bill.

[D]Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey, Rye Whiskey I cry
If a tree dont fall on me Ill [A7]live till I [D]die.

[D](O[A7]ooo[D]h hick)

If the [D]ocean was whiskey,(hick) and I was a duck
I'd dive to the [A7]bottom and never come [D]up.
Now the ocean ain't whiskey and I ain't a duck
Ill play Jack O Diamond and [A7]trust to my [D]luck.

[D]Rye Whiskey Rye Whiskey Rye Whiskey I cry
If the whiskey dont kill me Ill [A7]live till I [D]die.
