Cherry Wine

[Intro]
G5 C/G G5

[Verse 1]
    G5
Her eyes and words are so icy
                Em
Oh but she burns
     C/G            G5
Like rum on the fire
G5
Hot and fast and angry as she can be
Em        C/G            G5
I walk my days on a wire.

[Bridge]
C/G              Em C/G               Em
   It looks ugly,      but it's clean,
C/G                Am   D7/F# G5    G5
   Oh momma, don't fuss o____ver me.

[Chorus]
The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
    C/G                        C/G         G5
The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

[Verse 2]
G5
Calls of guilty thrown at me
                    Em
All while she stains
    C/G                 G5
The sheets of some other
G5
Thrown at me so po wer fully
                    Em         C/G                G5
Just like she throws  with the arm of her brother.

[Bridge]
C/G             Em
   But I want it
C/G            Em
   It's a crime
C/G                      Am   D7/F# G5       G5
   That she's not around most of    the time.

[Chorus]
The way she shows me I'm hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
    C/G                                    G5
The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

[Verse 3]
    G5
Her fight and fury is fiery
                Em
Oh but she loves
     C/G              G5
Like sleep to the freezing
G5
Sweet and right and merciful
            Em
I'm all but washed
           C/G           G5
In the tide   of her breathing.

[Bridge]
C/G                  Em C/G           Em
   And it's worth it,      it's divine
C/G                   Am   D7/F#
   I have this some of  the     time.

[Chorus]
G5
  The way she tells me I'm hers and she is mine
Open hand or closed fist would be fine
    C/G                                    G5
The blood is rare and sweet as cherry wine.

[Outro]
