Biography:
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

17 MILES OF BOURBON - Wrinkle Neck Mules
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Tabbed by: A.J. Conner
E-mail: [email protected]
Tuning: Standard
This is a nice bluegrass tune that changes things up a bit on the Mules' debut
album. It's fast-paced and really fun to play (especially if you know a good
banjo player). Still working on the guitar solo but it's a doozy. If you
can improvise some lead in G that'll do just fine until I get it figured out.
Sorry!

Overdrive Kentucky '62
G D
Smoke is risin' thick and blue
G C
Wild Turkey burnin', high lonesome sound
G D G
17 miles of bourbon flowin' down
VERSE:
G C
Turn of the century, it was a mystery
G D
the day that river caught fire
G C
Lord looked down and he breathed a heavy sigh,
G D G
40 gallon barrels firin' at the sky
BRIDGE 1:
Em D
And the catfish were in town lookin' for a ginger ale
Em D
and the stores sold outta all the garden hose
Em C
Sherriff Amos White took a train outta town,

Was a fateful day, that clear, windy May
That Green River turned a milky brown
Bibles were all closed and people danced in rows
Whiskey river flowin' through the town

And the catfish swam around lookin' for a ginger ale
Em D
And the stores sold outta all the garden hose
Em C
Sherriff Amos White took a train outta town,

At least that's what we all suppose
(CHORUS)
