Strawberry Wine
by Deanna Carter
Capo 1st fret
He was working thru college
On my grampa's farm
I was thirstin? for knowledge
And he had a car
I was caught somewhere between a woman and a child
One restless summer we found love growing wild
On the banks of a river near a well beaten path
Ain't it funny how those memories they last
CHORUS
Like Strawberry Wine
Seventeen
The hot july moon
Saw everything
My first taste of love was bittersweet
Like Green on the Vine
Strawberry Wine
Verse 2
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
Verse 3
The fields have grown over now
years since the've seen the plow
there'e nothing time hasn't touched
Was it really him or the loss of my innocence
I?ve been missing so much!
Yaaaaaah.
CHORUS
