Gordon Lightfoot - Blackberry Wine


CAPO: 4th Fret



INTRO:: Em  D  C  D  G

VERSE 1::
There's a south wind rising and the moon shines on my window sill 
I've got a feeling I might walk on over the hill 
                               D
I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some rest 
      F         C         G     D          G
And a bottle of your very best, Blackberry wine


VERSE 2::
There's a new moon rising and the wind sings its old song 
Pass it on over it's a sin to be sober too long 
                               D
I'm bent but not broken, all I need is my share 
     F         C         G     D          G
Of a bottle of that very rare, Blackberry wine

CHORUS::
Em
Blackberry wine 
G                    Cmaj7             D
You know that I'm no good without you
N.C.       G
Blackberry wine


VERSE 3::
My old gal's got a new dress on, five and dime 
Try as she will she can't get me to come home on time 
                              D
But I'd never cheat her or mistreat her you know 
   F        C          G   D          G
As over the mountain I go, Blackberry wine 
                           D
I'll be soft spoken, all I need is my rest 
      F         C         G     D          G
And a bottle of your very best, Blackberry wine


VERSE 4::
Now my days are numbered and one more heel's been killed
Blackberry John left me his old recipe in his will 
                               D
I'm bent but not broken, all I need is some time 
      F         C         G     D          G
And a bottle of your very fine, Blackberry wine


[CHORUS:
Em
Blackberry wine 
G                       Cmaj7            D
You know that I'm quite dry without you 
           G
Blackberry wine
