[INTRO]
[Bm] [G] [D]
[VERSE 1]
[D]In the West Virginia hills there must be ten thousand [Bm]stills
And they [G]found the biggest one outside of Blue [D]Field
A little peaceful country town nothin' else for miles [Bm]around
I saw [G]whiskey run like water down through Blue[D] Field
[BRIDGE]
My [G]trouble started on that [A]Tuesday after[D]noon
The [G]sheriff told me federal [A]men will be here [D]soon
He said we've [G]come up with a [A]plan to catch [D]Blue Field's slickest [Bm]man
And we [G]will as sure as I[A]'m the sheriff of Blue[D] Field
[VERSE 3]
On a [G]Wednesday I had [A]ninety jars to [D]cap
Didn't [G]think they'd had the [A]time to set a [D]trap
In the [G]brush I heard a [A]sound and I [D]swiftly hit the [Bm]ground
When I [G]shot I sent them [A]runnin' back to Blue[D] Field
[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G] [A] [D]
[VERSE 4]
[D]Not a soul suspected me I was the sheriff's [Bm]deputy
I'll make [G]whiskey but God [A]knows I'd never [D]kill
I didn't know he was that close when I let my shotgun [Bm]go
But I [G]found I killed my [A]friend the sheriff of Blue[D] Field
[BRIDGE]
I [G]recall how my mama [A]and my girl friend [D]cried
When they [G]left with me for [A]Roanoke for the [D]trial
It's my [G]last night in this [A]cell the last [D]story I will [Bm]tell
As I [G]sit on death row [A]dreamin' about Blue[D] Field
[OUTRO]
[Bm]Blue Field, [G]Blue Field, oh [D]Blue Field
[Bm] [G] [D]
[VERSE 1]
