Gm
I lost myself on a cool damp night
Eb
Gave myself in that misty light
D7 Cm
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
Cm
It makes me see what I want to see...
D7 Gm
And be what I want to be
G C
When I think more than I want to think
Cm Gm
Do things I never should do
G C
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Cm G D7
Because I brings me back you...
Interlude: G G7
G G7 C D7 G G7
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, like my love
C Dm G C Dm G C
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady, like my love
Eb D7
Listen to me... I cannot see clearly
D7 Am7 D7
Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?
-repeat as necessary-
G G7 C D7 G G7
Lilac Wine, I feel unready for my love
C Cm D7 G
I feel unready for my love...
