Bb
There's a fly in the window
Bb
A dog in the yard
Ab Eb/Ab
And a year since I saw you
Bb
There's a trunk in the corner
Bb
I keep all my letters
Ab
My bills and demands I keep too
Gm Bb/F
Well I can't help thinking
Eb
About the times
D7 Gm
You were a wife of mine
Bb
You aimed to please me
Eb
Cooked black-eyed peas-me
Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Made elderberry wine
F
Drunk all the time
F Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Feeling fine on elderberry wine
F
Those were the days
F
We'd lay in the haze
Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Forget depressive times
F
How can I ever get it together
Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Without a wife in line
F
To pick the crop and get me hot
Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb
On elderberry wine
Bb
Round a tree in the summer
Bb
A fire in the fall
Eb
Flat out when they couldn't stand
Bb
The bottle went round
Bb
Like a woman down south
Eb
Passed on from hand to hand
Gm Bb/F
Well I can't help thinking
Eb
About the times
D7 Gm
You were a wife of mine
Bb
You aimed to please me
Eb
Cooked black-eyed peas-me
Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Made elderberry wine
(Chorus 2x)
Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb
Elderberry wine.
Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb Bb Eb/Bb
Elderberry wine
(REPEAT, FADE)
