Cigarettes and Wine
By: Jason Isbell
D A
Saw her in Roosevelt Springs
D
time doesn't touch anything
A
she never did say she could sing
D
but I figured it so
D A
I needed some company then
D
not sisters or children again
A
that's a hell of a spot to be in
D
but she put me in tow
D A
Money and liquor and lust
D
have taken my heart and my trust
A
I could see ashes of dust
D
headed my way
D A
She tended bar in town
D
her alto settled me down
A
so I started hanging around
D
didn't need much to say
D7 G
She smelled like cigarettes and wine
D
she kept me happy all the time
A A7
I know that ain't much of a line
D D7
but it's the God's own truth
G
she lives down inside of me still
D
rolled up like a twenty dollar bill
A A7
she left me alone with these pills
D
and the last of my youth
D A
Wings on her shoulders and feet
D
a bar on Gethsemane street
A
I took time to plan retreat
D
backed out the door
D A
I must be attracted to those
D
who've witnessed a man in the throes
A
Of life that ain't grindstone to nose,
D
but pedal to floor
D7 G
She smelled like cigarettes and wine
D
she kept me happy all the time
A A7
I know that ain't much of a line
D D7
but it's the God's own truth
G
she lives down inside of me still
D
rolled up like a twenty dollar bill
A A7
she left me alone with these pills
D
and my smoldering youth
D A
Lost on the dry side of town
D
My memories slowing me down
A
She shook me and I came around
D
I came back to life
D A
With nary a mother or dad
D
She showed me what I never had
A
Now the princess leaves, she gets sad
D
'Cause I won't take a wife
D7 G
She smelled like cigarettes and wine
D
she kept me happy all the time
A A7
I know that ain't much of a line
D D7
but it's the God's own truth
G
she lives down inside of me still
D
