A E7 A X2
[Verse 1]
A E D A
Hanging around this dirty old town
A E7 A
A'picking for nickels and dimes
A E D A
Asking a friend just to lend me a hand
A E A
To get a little bottle of wine
[Chorus]
A
Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine
A E7 A
When you gonna let me get so-ber
A
Leave me alone, and let me go home
A E7 A
Let me go back and start o - ver
[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
A E D A
A little hotel, cold as a well
A E7 A
And dark as the coal in the mine
A E D A
The blankets so thin,that I lay there and grin
A E A
Hugging my bottle of wine
[Chorus]
A
Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine
A E7 A
When you gonna let me get so-ber
A
Leave me alone, and let me go home
A E7 A
Let me go back and start o - ver
[Instrumental]

[Verse 3]
A E D A
A preacher will preach and a teacher will teach,
A E7 A
A miner will dig in the mine
A E D A
I ride the rods, trusting in God
A E A
And hugging my bottle of wine
[Chorus]
A
Bottle of wine, fruit of the vine
A E7 A
When you gonna let me get so-ber
A
Leave me alone, and let me go home
A E7 A
Let me go back and start o - ver
