Well, show me the way To the next whiskey bar

Oh, don't ask why

Show me the way To the next whiskey bar
F#m            D7
Oh, don't ask why
F#m            D7
Oh, don't ask why
Am
For if we don't find The next whiskey bar,
F#m                D7
I tell you we must die
F#m                D7
I tell you we must die
F#m                                        D7 (or is it a C?)
I tell you, I tell you I tell you we must die

(drop-down organ riff)

Chorus #1:

F                                       B
Oh, moon of Alabama We now must say goodbye
      G                 Gm    C
We've lost our good old mama And must

    F                               E
Oh, moon of Alabama We now must say goodbye

Well, show me the way To the next little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why
Show me the way To the next little girl
Oh, don't ask why
Oh, don't ask why
For if we don't find The next little girl

I tell you we must die
I tell you, I tell you I tell you we must die

Oh, moon of Alabama We now must say goodbye
We've lost our good old mama And must have whiskey, oh, you now why
