Blackberry Wine chords by Gordon Lightfoot

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
