C A G
Wading through the waste stormy winter
Thank you for your wine California
C A G
and there's not a friend to help you through
thank you for your sweet and bitter fruits
C A G C
Trying to stop the waves behind your eye-balls
Yes I got the desert in my toe-nail
G D G C
Drop your reds drop your greens an blues
And I hid the speed insdie my shoes

C A G
Come on, come on down, Sweet Virginia
C A G
Come on, honey Child I beg of you
C A G
Come on, come on down, you got it in you
C D G
Got to scrape that shit right off your shoes
(repeat this last part twice after the solo)
Sax solo
i also tabbed this. it sounds better on sax but it also sounds pretty good on a guitar.
