Oh, whiskey's the life of man, but whiskey's mostly water
Am F C G F
And it's whiskey fuels the worker and corrupts his only daughter
C F C F
The mountain water in the still, the copper pipes a-steamin'
Em Dm G
There'll soon be whiskey in the glass and dreamers gone to dreamin'
F Em
Oh, it's the dreamin', it's the dreamin'
F Dm G
A young girl's prayer, an old man's thoughts a-reelin'
F G Am
Two lovers stealin', the moonlight beamin'
Dm G C
Oh, it's the dreamin', it's the dreamin'
Am F C G
Oh, I met her down in Dublin town, like a bottle fly I fell
Am F C G F
To the spider in the Blackbush of the old railway hotel
C F C
I spun my web from Liffey's walls, to the back room down at Whelan's
F Em Dm G
But, oh, how sweet my poison, now is drowning in the dreamin'
F Em
Oh, it's the dreamin', it's the dreamin'
F Dm G
A young girl's prayer, an old man's thoughts a-reelin'
F G Am
Two lovers stealin', the moonlight beamin'
Dm G C
Oh, it's the dreamin', it's the dreamin'
Am F C G
Oh, whiskey's made of water, lads, barley, corn or malt
Am F C G F
And man and woman's water, mixed with poetry and salt
C F C
Bring on the pullin' of the tides, the flash of eyes a-gleamin'
F Em Dm G
When passion blends the elements, the yeast is but the dreamin'
F Em
Oh, it's the dreamin', it's the dreamin'
F Dm G
A young girl's prayer, an old man's thoughts a-reelin'
F G Am
Two lovers stealin', the moonlight beamin'
Dm G C
The search for meaning, leads through the dreamin'
Am F C
Oh, whiskey's the life of man
