Backslider's Wine by Jerry Jeff Walker
Backslider's Wine
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse 1]
D G
As the rain ruins my alibi
C G
I'm down to tellin' you my red-eyed mind
C
It's not that sun bright path
G
That called me from my home
F C D G
It's just that fine backslider's wine
[Chorus]
D G
My momma sings out in my memory
C G
Oh son, don't wear no black eyed shine
C G
Fight for your rights but don't just fight for right
F C D G
And do not drink backslider's wine
[Verse 2]
D G
But I took myself for a strong and loving soul
C G
'Til I found myself face down on a bar room floor
C G
Crying my God, what has become of me
F C D G
I dare not drink backslider's wine no more
[Instrumental]

[Chorus]
D G
My momma sings out in my memory
C G
Oh son, don't take no black eyed shine
C G
Fight for your rights but don't just fight for right

And do not drink backslider's wine
F C D G
No, do not drink backslider's wine
