Lynyrd Skynyrd - Wino: chords

              Em7                         Bm7
Wino on the street. Drinking a bottle of booze
                     Em7                                 Bm7
Ain't got nothing to say, yeah. And he don't got much to lose
                  Em7                   Bm7
Times are on his face. Blisters on his brain
                  Em7                       Bm7
Wonders who's at fault. Knows that he's to blame

Thinks back on his childhood and wonders the reasons why
Why some men have made it rich. Why some men have cried
Reached out his hand, lord. For a nickel or a dime
Livin' every day, yeah, for one more taste of wine

Chorus:
 C B   G               A   B
Wino, soon you've got to choose
 C   B    G            A Em
How long must you take abuse
 C B  G                A  B
Wino, you wasn't born to lose
  C    B       G         A  Em
Sweet wine is making you a fool

Wino on the street. Drinking a bottle of booze
Ain't got nothing to say, yeah. And he don't got much to lose
I want to help him out with his troubles and woes
I guess he's a happy young man. God in heaven only knows

Chorus

Yonder come a man, now this I know
Now you better find some place to go
Yonder come a man to take you downtown
He don't want you hanging around
