A Up in Kentucky they make a whiskey they call a Kentucky straight whiskey And up in Kentucky I married a woman That I bet she is a better woman than that whiskey is whiskey I call her my Kentucky straight A D A E I've rambled round the country side, I've drifted near and far A D B7 E I've been off to seek my fortune, I've been following every star A D E A I've rode the devil's highway, the hell bound interstate A D E A A7 But now I'm back at happy shack with my Kentucky straight Chorus: D E A And we rise up every morning with the chicken D E A A7 And every minute we're alive we're living D E A D She's a little bit old fashioned, but her lovin's up to date A E A And I'm happy here with my Kentucky straight I had looked for satisfaction in the arms of quite a few And I've done everything that I was big enough to do But everywhere I see her face from Maine to golden gate And I knew that this is where it's at with my Kentucky straight Chorus | TransposeReset Font SizeReset Guitar Chord DiagramsA  A7  D  E  B7  Here you can see detailed diagrams for each guitar chord used in the song.
