Blackberry Wine

[INTRO:] Em  D  C  D  G

[VERSE 1:]
There's a south wind rising and the 
moon shines on my windowsill
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     
And a bottle of your very best, 
D          G
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  
Of a bottle of that very rare, 
   D          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
As over the mountain I go, 
   D          G
Blackberry wine
                           D
I'll be soft spoken, all I need is 
my rest
      F         C         G     
And a bottle of your very best, 
D          G
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     
And a bottle of your very fine, 
D          G

You know that I'm quite dry 
        D
without you
