A#
There's a fly in the window, a dog in the yard
      Cm
And a year since I saw you
           A#
There's a trunk in the corner I keep all my letters
   Cm
My bills and demands I keep too

Cm      Gm                   D#
Well, I can't help thinking about the times
D7                  Gm
You were a wife of mine
               A#                          D#
You aimed to please me, cooked black-eyed peas-me
     F           A#
Made elderberry wine

Chorus:
F                                   D#         A#
Drunk all the time, feeling fine on elderberry wine
F
Those were the days, we'd lay in the haze
   D#              A#
Forget depressive times
F                                 D#             A#
How can I ever get it together without a wife in line?
F                                       D#    A#  D#  A#  D#
To pick the crop and get me hot on elderberry wine

Round a tree in the summer, a fire in the fall
Flat out when they couldn't stand
The bottle went round like a woman down south
Passed on from hand to hand

Well, I can't help thinking about the times
You were a wife of mine
You aimed to please me, cooked black-eyed peas-me
Made elderberry wine
