[Verse]
Gm
I lost myself on a cool damp night
Eb
Gave myself in that misty light
D7 Am7b5
Was hypnotized by a strange delight
D7 Gm
Under a lilac tree
Gm
I made wine from the lilac tree
Eb
Put my heart in its recipe
Am7b5
It makes me see what I want to see...
D7 Gm
And be what I want to be
Fdim7 C/G
When I think more than I want to think
Cm/G Gm
Do things I never should do
Fdim7 C/G
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Cm/G Dsus4 D
Because I brings me back you...
[Chorus]
G G/F
G G/F C/E D7 G G/F
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, like my love
C/E Dm9 G C/E Dm9 G
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, like my love
Eb D7
Listen to me... I cannot see clearly
Am7 D7add9
Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?
G G/F C/E D7 D7sus4 G G/F
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, where’s my love
C/E Dm9 G C/E Dm9 G C/E
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, where’s my love
Eb D7
Listen to me... why is everything so hazy
Am7 D7
Isn’t that she, or am I just going crazy dear?
G G/F C/E D7 G G/F
Lilac Wine I feel unready for my love
C/E Am7b5/Eb D7 G
Fe-----el unready fo----or my lo-----ove
