G C D C G D Am6 Em D7 Em D7 C6
G D Em
Just before our love got lost you said,
Em C
I am as constant as a northern star,
G/B
And I said, constant in the darkness,
D7 D
Where's that at? If you want me I'll be in the bar.
G Bm D
On the back of a cartoon coaster
Em Am7 Em7 C
In the blue t.v. screen light
Bm7 G D Em Gaug G C
I drew a map of Canada, Oh Canada,
G/B D C
And your face sketched on it twice.
G/B Am7
You're in my blood like holy wine,
G
You're so bitter and so sweet,
Em D# G C
I could drink a case of you,
G/B D7 G
If I would still be on my feet,
C/G C
I would still be on my feet.

G D7 Em Gmaj7 Em D
G D
Oh I am a lonely painter,
Em7 C6
I live in a box of paints,
G/B
I'm frightened by the devil,
Dm7 G/B D D7
But I'm drawn to those ones that ain't,
G D/F# D6
Remember that time that you told me, you said,
Em7 C
Love is touching souls, surely you touched mine,
G D7
Part of you pours out of me,
G/A D G D C
In these lines from time to time.
G/B Bm7 D7
You're in my blood like holy wine,
C
You're so bitter baby, yeah so sweet,
Oh I could drink a case of you,
F# Em Gaug Bm
I could drink a case of you,
C G/B D7 G C D C G D Em D Em D
Still I'd be on my feet, but still be on my feet.
D7 G D/F# Bm
I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours,
Em C
She knew when we were devils, she knew your deeds,
Em C
And she said,
Cmaj7 G D C
Go with it, stay with it, but be prepared to bleed,
Bm7
You're in my blood like holy wine,
D7 C/D G
You're so bitter, baby, and so sweet,
Em Em7 C
I could drink a case of you, of you darling,
Bm7 G C/G D C
Still I'd be on my feet, I would still be on my feet.
