[Verse 1]
D D
I have lost my blue-eyed darling,
G D
Now I sit with a broken heart
D A
By my cabin in the Carolina hills
D D
Oh I loved a 'shiner's daughter
G D
Loved her true with all my heart
D A D
'til she fell into her pappy's liquor still
[Chorus]
D D
Oh what a waste of good corn liquor
D A
From the still they pulled the plug
D D G D
Now the revenuers snickered 'cause she melted in the liquor
D A D
And they had to bury poor Lilly by the jug

[Verse 2]
D D
Cousin Cale upon the juice harp
G D
Played a mighty mournful tune
D D A
As the kinfolks bowed their heads and gathered round
D D
Then I heard the parson sing
G Bm
Drink me only with thine eyes
D A D
As we watch them pour poor Lilly in the ground
[Chorus]
D D
Oh what a waste of good corn liquor
D A
From the still they pulled the plug
D D G D
Now the revenuers snickered 'cause she melted in the liquor
D A D
And they had to bury poor Lilly by the jug
