Green Ginger Wine
Tono: Original
After seeing the other tab here was slightly off I felt compelled to submit my
own. This is how i play the song and I'm fairly confident it's right. There might
be an instrumental section I missed but who really cares?
Enjoy, Olly.
N.C.
Oh kiss me Maggie & take me home,
For I sure dinnae feel like dyinâ alone,
Gawn geez a shot, chuck a doggie a bone,
Or a penny for me rattlinâ can,
D(let ring)
As sure as Christ itâs a bitter pill,
But if you wonât have me, yer sister will,
D D D D D D
Iâll cart me arse doon Surry Hills & call her out this eveninâ,
