Too Much Beaujolais
			copyright Wanda C. Metcalf  2/2/2014


I was drunk and lonely - you were too. late at night not much to do A D 2x
We started dancing to the radio                                                         A D B7 E
The tunes were catchy, kinda fast. We set a pace that couldn't last  A D  2x
Then they played an oldie, sweet and slow                                      A D  B7 E
I held you close and you did not let go                                            D E  A

Whatever was I thinking? Clearly I was not                                   D A 2x
what followed was predictable - a grade-B movie plot                     D A E
Surging hormones made it seem like fate                                        D  E F#m
But it was too much Beaujolais too late                                          D E A

                                                                                                         A D 2x
We tumbled through your bedroom door,  shed our clothes upon the floor
Made love - It wasn't great, but it was nice.                                   A D B7 E
Woke next morning in your bed Remembering the night I fled     A D  2x
Didn't want to see your face like ice                                               A D  B7 E 
Knew the magic wouldn't happen twice                                         D E  A


We didn't speak of it again you moved out two months later when   A D 2x
a better job enticed you to the coast                                                   A D B7 E
I think of you once in a while your tousled hair and crooked smile  A D  2x
Its like a fleeting visit from a ghost                                                    A D  B7 E 
Who came when I was needing him the most                                    D E  A


Whatever was I thinking? Clearly I was not                                   D A 2x
what followed was predictable - a grade-B movie plot                     D A E
Surging hormones felt like tools of fate                                          D B7 E
But it was too much Beaujolais too late                                          D E A
