[A]
[C] [A] [Am] [A]
[C] [A] LA in the summer of 69.
I went downtown and bought me some wine.
[D] Oh, I drunk it down and went [C] under the table.
[D]
[A] I said, watch me now, [E] I'm gonna eat the label.
[A] [Am]
[D] I'm a wine old man, [E] don't you know I [G] am.
[A] [E] [A]
Sixteen before it was about thirty.
I seen a fine lady and I started talking dirty.
[C]
[D] Boy, she looked over at me and she raised her thumb.
[Am] She said, ten down the road, she bum, buh, buh, [A] buh.
[D] I'm a wine old man, [E] don't you know I am.
[G]
[A] [C] [A]
[F#m] I went to the country.
[C#m] While I was [F#m] gone, I lost control of my body [C#m] functions.
On a lower headed lady's front lawn.
[Bm] I'm so ashamed, but I'm a wine [F#m] old man, I can't help [F#] myself.
[A] Drinking all night till my eyes [Am] got red.
Stumbled on the gutter and busted my head.
Bugs in my zoot suit.
Been scratching like a dog.
I can't stand cold water.
And I stink like a hog.
Gimme a five dollar bill and an overcoat too.
Gimme a five dollar bill and an overcoat too.
Gimme a five [A] dollar bill and an overcoat too.
Gimme a five dollar bill and a wash [Am] out shoe.
