[Verse 1]
C                        G/B            Am7
 Just before our love got lost you said, "I am as constant as the northern star"
           Dm7                          C                 G
And I said, "Constantly in the darkness. Where's that at?   If you want me I'll be in the bar"
        C                   G/B  Am7                            Dm7                    C
On the back of a cartoon coaster,    in the blue TV screen light, I drew a map of Canada
    C    G/B  Am7
Oh, Ca - na - da   oooh
     Dm7           C              G
With    your face sketched on it twice

[Chorus]
       F                     Em
Oh, you're in my blood like holy wine
Dm7                     C
   You're so bitter, so  sweet
    C                 C    G/B  Am7
Oh, I could drink a case   of   you, darling
            Dm7      C          G
And I would still be on my feet
N.C
Oh, I would still be on my feet

Oh, I am a lonely painter.  I live in a box of paints.  I'm frightened by the devil
                                        G
And I'm drawn to those ones that ain't afraid
         C                            G/B               Am7
Do you remember when you told me love was touching souls?   Surely you touched mine,
      Dm7                C        G
'Cause part of you pours out of me in these lines from time to time

[Chorus]
       F                      Em
And you are in my blood like holy wine
Dm7                    C
  You're so bitter, so   sweet

    C                 C    G/B  Am7
Oh, I could drink a case   of   you, darling
            Dm7      C          G
And I would still be on my feet
N.C
I'd still be on my feet

I met a woman, she had a mouth like yours, she knew your life    She knew your devils and your deeds
            Dm7          C                        G
And she said, "Go to him, stay with him if you can, but be prepared to bleed"

[Chorus]
       F                      Em
And you are in my blood like holy wine

Oh, I could drink a case   of   you, darling

And I would still be on my feet
N.C
I'd still be on my feet
