Strawberry Wine
by Deana Carter
transcribed by Tina Lenz
Capo 1st fret
C F
He was working through college
C G
On my grandpa's farm
C F
I was thirstin' for knowledge
C G
And he had a car
Am G
I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child
Am G
One restless summer we found love growing wild
G F
On the banks of a river on a well beaten path
G F
Ain't funny how those memories they last like
chorus:
F C
Strawberry wine
G
Seventeen
Am
The hot July moon
F
Saw everything
C G
My first taste of love whoa bittersweet
Am
And green on the vine
F C
Like strawberry wine
I still remember
When thirty was old
My biggest fear was September
When he had to go
A few cards and letters and one long distance call
We drifted away like the leaves in the fall
But year after year I come back to this place
Just to remember the taste of
Chorus
Dm
The fields have grown over now
Years since they've seen the plow
There's nothing time hasn't touched
Am
Was it really him or the loss of my innocence
G F
I've been missing so much
F C
Yaaaaahhhh
This is my version based on the one submitted by Jason Pauken. There were a few
chord changes. He had the right idea. I believe the chords are correct now.

"Sometimes I laugh, sometimes I cry, sometimes I do both and I don't know
why...I've got a passionate heart and that's just the way things are...
You and me could give it a whirl, but I'm warning you boy...
I'm an emotional girl..."
