Strawberry Wine
29
G
Last night the street collapsed on itself
C C/B Am
In fact it broke right in two
Em D/F# G
And I fell in strawberry vines
C Am
Into a pool of strawberry wine
G D/F# G F# G
Strawberry wine inclines
C C/B Am
Burning in the desert surrounded by fires
Em D/F# G
but the stems break beyond more than the morning calls
C C/B Am
Till it's all just the same thing again, oh God
D Am C/B
()
Don't spend too much time on the other side
D Am
Let the daylight in
G C Am
*
Before you give up and you can't break out of it my old friend
G
*
Cause it's getting worse if you want any flowers
C C/B Am
You better get your seeds into the ground
D Am G Gsus G
And I worry about you
D Am G C G
Why? Because you want me to
G
Can you still have any famous last words
C Am
If you're somebody nobody knows
Em
I don't know
G C
Somebody go and ask Claire, she's been dead 20 years just look at her

hair
G F# G F# G
Strawberry blonde with curls
C Am
She gets her hair done then she gossips with the younger waitress

girls at the bar
F# G C Am
The old Irish rose drinking strawberry wine till it comes out her nose
D Am
Dont spend too much time on the other side
D Am
Let the daylight in
G C Am
Before you give up and you can't break out of it my old friend
G
Cause it's getting worse if you want any flowers
C Am
You better get your seeds into the ground
D Am G
And I worry about you
D Am G
Why? Because you want me to
G
Marty was a kid when he learned to sail boats
C Am
His dad was a DJ on the radio
Am C Em G
He fell into a life of river boating crime
C Am
Now he's the man you see in prison if you want strawberry wine
G F# G F# G
Strawberry wine or smokes
C Am
He sent a letter to his friend explaining one night on coke
Em G
He and Claire jumped right into them strawberry vines
C Am
Lord knows you get lost on that strawberry wine
D Am
Don't spend too much time on the other side
D Am
Let the daylight in
G
This fellow downtown he jumped off a bridge
C Am
He was angry about a letter he received from his friend
Em G
He jumped into the banks of San Francisco Bay
C Am
Picking strawberries in the clouds all day
G F# G F# G
Cause with nothing left to lose you get screwed
C Am
You sell your apartment before they make you move
Em G
Then you jump straight into the arms of the most beautiful girl
C Am
Who had never ever lived in the history of the world
G F# G F# G
And with nothing left to prove you get screwed
C Am
And sell your apartment before they make you move

Gonna jump straight into the darkened bay

Picking strawberries with strawberry wine all day

So don't spend too much time on the other side

Dont forget to let the daylight in

Cause before you get old you better break out of it my old friend

You better get your seeds into the ground
