What the hell is a Wrinkle Neck Mule? A sophomoric phallic reference? Too easy. A pack animal used in the Sierra Madre mountains of Mexico to transport opium to America in the early 1900s? History channel worthy, but wrong. A band of five (or four, depending on the wind) from Richmond, Virginia carrying indie-rockish country music about the land? Eureka. Daily double.
Born somewhere on I-64 between Charlottesville and Richmond, Virginia in late 1999

FAm
[VERSE]
CAm Where do the old moonshiners go when they die? CAm What of their stills in the pines? CAmFAm Is their kettle still burnin' hot? Or has that still run dry? CAmCAm Papa was a whiskey man and his before him, now so am I. CAm Lord knows I miss them but I know I'm not alone, FAm When I look up into the night sky.
[CHORUS 1]
DmF Where do the old moonshiners go when they die? CG I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky, DmFCAmG It's their kettles still burnin' bright FG When I'm alone out there in the middle of the night CC/BAm Sittin' with my weed and my wine, FGC I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.

FAm
[VERSE 2]
CAm Way down South Georgia in 1932, CAm old Uncle John was in a bind, CAm Owned himself the only general store for miles FAm Controlled all the farmin' supplies CAm Wasn't long before the I.O.U.s piled up; CAm people just couldn't pay CAm So it closed that store and up into the woods he went FAm Back to that moonshine
[CHORUS 2]
DmF Where do the old moonshiners go when they die? CG I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky, DmFCAmG It's their kettles still burnin' bright FG When I'm alone out there in the middle of the night CC/BAm Sittin' with my corn and my wine, FGC I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.
[BRIDGE]
GFC And I know that they'll walk with me GFC When it's time for me to pass to that great by and by GFC And I pray the Lord will forgive me FG 'Cause even Jesus Christ could use a little wine CAm Where do the old moonshiners go when they die? CAm What of their stills in the pines? CAm Is their kettle still burnin' hot, FAm or has that still run dry?
[CHORUS 3]
DmF Where do the old moonshiners go when they die? CG I've been told that they're livin' in that big dipper in the sky, DmFCAmG It's their kettles still burnin' bright FG When I'm alone out there... in the pines CC/BAm Sittin' with my corn and my wine, FGC I look up through the pines and give a nod to that big dipper in the sky.
[ENDING]
AmGFG Yes I look up through the pines and give a nod C To that big dipper in the sky
