[Dm]Ohh oh [G]oh summer [Am]wine


[Am]Strawberries cherries and [G]an angel’s kiss in spring

[Dm]And I will [G]give to you [Am]summer wine
[Dm]Ohh oh [G]oh summer [Am]wine


[Am]My eyes grew heavy and my [G]lips they could not speak
[Am]I tried to get up but I [G]couldn’t find my feet
[Dm]She reassured me with an [Am]unfamiliar line
[Dm]And then she [G]gave to me [Am]more summer wine
[Dm]Ohh oh [G]oh summer [Am]wine

[Ebm]Mmm [G#]mm summer [Bbm]wine


[Bm]When I woke up the sun was [A]shining in my eyes
[Bm]My silver spurs were gone my [A]head felt twice its size
[Em]She took my silver spurs a [Bm]dollar and a dime
[Em]And left me [A]cravin’ for [Bm]more summer wine
[Em]Ohh oh [A]oh summer [Bm]wine


[Bm]Strawberries cherries and an [A]angel’s kiss in spring
[Bm]My summer wine is really [A]made from all these things
[Em]Take off your silver spurs and [Bm]help me pass the time
