Yesterday's Wine - Merle Haggard & George Jones

Intro |Bb7|C|F|/|

1. Strophe
Bb F
Miracles appear in the strangest of places,
C7 F
and some may find in you here.
Bb F
Last time I saw you was just out of Houston,
C7 F
let me sit down and buy you a beer.

2. Strophe
Bb F
Your presence is welcome with me and my friend here,
C7 F
for this is a hangout of mine.
Bb F
I come here quite often to listen to music
C7 F
and to taste yesterday's wine.

1. Refrain
Bb F
Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine,
C7 F
ageing with time like yesterday's wine.
Bb F
Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine,
C7 F
we're ageing with time like yesterday's wine.

3. Strophe
Bb F
You give the apearance of one wily travelled,
C7 F
Lord I bet you've seen things in your time.
Bb F
Come sit down here with us and tell us your story,
C7 F
if it's true you like yesterday's wine.

2. Refrain
Bb F
Yesterday's wine, yesterday's wine,
C7 F
we're ageing with time like yesterday's wine.
Bb F
Yesterday's wine, oh yesterday's wine,
C7 F
we're ageing with time like yesterday's wine.

Coda
C7 F
We're ageing with time like yesterday's wine...
