Jerry Jeff Walker ~ Backslider's Wine chords
Start Jamming...
Well, [D] as the rain ruins [G] my life,
Down [C] to Chillingview, I [G] read I'd find
It's not [C] that sun bright past
That calls [G] me from my home
It's just [F] that [Em] fine [Am]
black [G] slider's wine
My [D] mama sings loud in [G] my memory
Oh, son, [C] don't wear no black [G] eyeshine
Fight for [C] your right, but don't [G] just fight for right
Do [F] not [Em] [Am] drink black [G] slider's wine
I [Em] [D] took myself for a strong [G] and loving soul
Till I [C] found myself face down on the [G] barroom floor
[C] Crying like God, what [G] has become of me?
Do [F] not [Em] [Am] drink black [G] slider's wine, oh Lord

Do [F] not [Em] [Am] drink black [G] slider's wine
Do [F] not drink [Em] [Am]
black [G] slider's wine
