Warm Spanish Wine chords by Roger Alan Wade

Intro:

E   B   A       E   B   A


Verse 1:

E                             B
Silver clouds laced cross the Juarez sky,
C#m                        A
the horizons the color of Liz Taylor’s eyes
E                       B                          A
On a slow moving train, yesterday rolls through my mind
E                               B
I’ve been all afternoon in this dirty cantina,
C#m                               A
staring out at the world through a broken window
E                 B                 A
Washing down your memory with warm Spanish wine

Verse 2:

E                         B
Riding my thoughts back a dozen years or so
C#m                 A
To a mining town in east Ohio
E            B                     A
where I laid eyes on you the first time
E                                       B
Your skin was pale as pearls, your lips red as blood
C#m                          A
Your laughter rang true like laughter should
E             B                      A
And I was the fist man to lay by your side
A         B                       A
And to share with you warm Spanish wine


Chorus:

A                                         E
As I recall your eyes were the color of a faded blue bandana
E              B                              E                E7
Your legs were longer than the tall tales your old man used to tell
A                                          E
Your corn silk hair hung down your neck in tangled braids of loose neglect
         B                                 C#m
And your passion, oh your passion could melt Bethlehem steel
                    B                      A           E  B  A     E  B  A
You made me feel so fine, like warm Spanish wine


Verse 3:

E                             B
But now my mind’s all tangled in regret
C#m                       A
as I flick the ashes from my cigarette
E                                  B                  A
I realize all that’s between me and hell is this dirty floor
E                                  B
Cuz I am older now than I have ever been,
C#m                        A
but younger than I’ll ever be again
E                               B                 A
I’ll never have you again like I had you then but that’s fine
A               B                        A
I swear baby I’m fine, I got warm Spanish wine


Chorus:

A                                         E
As I recall your eyes were the color of a faded blue bandana
E              B                              E               E7
Your legs were longer than the tall tales your old man used to tell
A                                         E
Your corn silk hair hung down your neck in tangled braids of loose neglect
B                                           C#m
And your passion, oh your passion could melt cold steel
                   B                       A
You made me feel so fine, like warm Spanish wine


Outro:

E     B                      A
Oh my baby, like warm Spanish wine
E       B                       A
Yeah my tender lover, I got warm Spanish wine
E    B           A           E  B  A
Yeah baby do you remember
E
