Dm C G/B C Am G C G/B
[Verse 1]
C G/B Am
Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a northern star
Dm C
And I said, constantly in the darkness
G/B
Where's that at?
Am G G C G/B
If you want me I'll be in the bar
C G/B
On the back of a cartoon coaster
Am
In the blue TV screen light
Dm C
I drew a map of Canada
C G/B Am
Oh Cana...da
Dm C G/B
And your face sketched on it twice
[Chorus]
F C/E
Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Dm C
Oh and you taste so bitter and so sweet
C C G/B Am
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Dm C G/B
And I would still be on my feet
C F Am/G G Am/G F C/E
Oh I would still be on my feet
Dm C G/B C Am G C G/B
[Verse 2]
C G/B Am
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
Dm C
I'm frightened by the devil
G/B Am G G C G/B
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
C G/B
I remember that time that you told me, you said
Am
Love is touching souls
G C/E
Surely you touched mine
Dm C
Cause part of you pours out of me
G/B Am G G C G/B
In these lines from time to time
[Chorus]
F C/E
Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Dm C
Oh and you taste so bitter and so sweet
C C G/B Am
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Dm C G/B
And I would still be on my feet
C F Am/G G Am/G F C/E
Oh I would still be on my feet
Dm C G/B C Am G C G/B
[Bridge]
C
I met a woman
G/B
She had a mouth like yours
Am
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
Dm
And she said
C G/B
Go to him, stay with him if you can
Am G G C G/B
Oh but be prepared to bleed
[Chorus]
F C/E
Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Dm C
Oh and you taste so bitter and so sweet
C C G/B Am
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Dm C G/B
And I would still be on my feet
C F Am/G G Am/G F C/E
Oh I would still be on my feet Ooooh
Dm C G/B C Am G C G/B
Ooh Ooh Ooh Ooh Oohh

Just before our love got lost you said
I am as constant as a northern star
And I said, constant in the darkness
Wheres that at?
If you want me I'll be in the bar
On the back of a cartoon coaster
In the blue TV screen light
I drew a map of Canada
Oh Canada
And your face sketched on it twice
Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
Oh and you taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
And I would still be on my feet
Oh I'd still be on my feet
Oh I am a lonely painter
I live in a box of paints
I'm frightened by the devil
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
I remember that time that you told me, you said
Love is touching souls
Surely you touched mine
Cause part of you pours out of me
In these lines from time to time
Oh you are in my blood like holy wine
And you taste so bitter and so sweet
Oh I could drink a case of you darling
Still I'd be on my feet
Oh I'd still be on my feet
I met a woman
She had a mouth like yours
She knew your life
She knew your devils and your deeds
And she said
Go to him, stay with him if you can
Oh but be prepared to bleed
Oh but you are in my blood like holy wine
you taste so bitter, bitter and so sweet
I could drink a case of you darling
Still Id be on my feet
Oh I'd still be on my feet
