	Where there's aroma and heart
	Cb9+5                    Bb13  Eb6  
	Memories of her orange crate art
Verse 2:
	Orange crate table and a rockin' chair
	Barnyard gate waiting some repair

	And it rolls where grapes of wrath are stored
	Cb9+5               Bb9  Eb  
	Stops on a bracero's prayer
	* Db9 during instrumental repeat
Verse 3:
	From the vine of a vintage cru
	Comes the wine of this rendezvous
	Room for two in view of Sonoma
	Back when Ramona had heart
	Memories of her orange crate art
[repeat bridge instrumentally]
[repeat verse 3, first two lines instrumentally]
