[Intro]
C G
C G
[Chorus]
C G C G
Winonah, the whiskey owns her
D C G
So she takes to the taverns to take some company
C G C G
Winonah, nobody's shown her
D C G
That barrooms are a prison and whiskey is no key
[Verse 1]
G C G C
Contemplating why her youth so quickly slipped away
G C D G
Winonah pours another drink to wash the pain away
C D G C
Taking whiskey for her wages, Winonah looks for truth
G C D G
While sweeping up the sawdust underneath the barroom booth
[Chorus]
C G C G
Winonah, the whiskey owns her
D C G
So she takes to the taverns to take some company
C G C G
Winonah, nobody's shown her
D C G
That barrooms are a prison and whiskey is no key
[Verse 2]
G C G C
Early in her younger days she felt she could not cope
G C D G
So dependency on dreams became her only hope
C D G C
And now the dreams she's dreamin' come from bottles on the shelf
G C D G
So gaily, drinking daily, sweet Winonah finds herself
[Chorus]
C G C G
Winonah, the whiskey owns her
D C G
So she takes to the taverns to take some company
C G C G
Winonah, nobody's shown her
D C G
That barrooms are a prison and whiskey is no key
