This CAN be played on an acoustic, as that is all I play. You need to put some extra punch in the strum and hit the bass string with emphasis!
Poison Whiskey (from the boxed set) Lynyrd Skynyrd
G Daddy was a cajun babe G Raised on Southern land G Some'uv of my kin folk tell me G Was a street fightin' man
C Well they rush him down to see the doctor C Hey! Doctor check his head G The only thing that was wrong with him was Uncle Johnny's Red D He drank ol' bootleg whiskey G Until it killed him dead
G Happened back in the bayou baby G Many year ago. G Satan came to take him G And did it real slow
C Well they rushed him down to see the doctor C The Doctor just shook his head G 20 years of rot gut whiskey done killed this poor man dead D He drank ol' bootleg whiskey G And it killed him dead
(solo)
