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
F° C
When I think more than I want to think
Cm Gm
Do things much I never should DO
F° C
I drink much more than I ought to drink
Cm D7
Because it brings me back you
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
Listen to me
D7
I cannot see clearly
D7 Am7 D7
Isn't that she coming to me nearly here?
G G7 C D7 G G7
Lilac wine is sweet and heady, where's my love?
C Dm G C Dm G
Lilac wine, I feel unsteady
C
Where's my love?
Eb D7
Listen to me, why is everything so hazy?
D7 Am7 D7
Isn't that she, or am I just going crazy, dear?
G G7 C D7 G G7
Lilac wine, I feel unready for my love
C D7(9-) D7 G
Feel unready for my love
