Lilac Wine
(Verse)
Gm
I lost myself on a cool damp night
Eb
Gave myself in that misty light
D7 Am7-5
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
D7 Gm
Under a lilac tree
Gm
I made wine from the lilac tree
Eb
Put my heart in its recipe
Am7-5
It makes me see what I want to see...
D7 Gm
And be what I want to be
(Pre-Chorus)
Fdim7 C
When I think more than I want to think
Cm Gm
Do things I never should do
Fdim7 C
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Cm G5 Dsus4
Because I brings me back you...
(Chorus)
GG/F
G G/F C/E D7 G G/F
Lilac wine....is sweet and heady, like my love
C/E Dm GC/E Dm G C/E
Lilac wine I feel unsteady, like my love
Eb D7
Listen to me... I cannot see clearly
Am7 D7
Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?
G G/F C/E D G G/F
Lilac wine....is sweet and heady, where's my love
C/E Dm G C/E Dm G C
Lilac wine I feel unsteady, where's my love
Eb D7
Listen to me... why is everything so hazy
Am7 D7
Isn't that she, or am I just going crazy dear?
G G/F C/E D7 D6 G G/F
Lilac wine I feel unready for my love
