Intro
Bm Am D
Verse 1
G Cmaj7
Driving home toward the vines
Bm7 Am7
Linking arms ‘cross the hill
G Am7 C D
Evening light is dying into shadow
G Cmaj7
Winding up my window
Bm7 Am7
To keep out the cold night air
G Am7 C D
Passing time with memories I follow
Chorus
Dm7 G
Old town days in Clare Valley
Dm7 C
Misty mornings by the stream
Bm7 Am7 D
Leading me back home
Verse 2
G Cmaj7
Seven hill college out of the past
Bm7 Am7
Where we thought that monks wore robes
G Am7 C D
You hid in the crypt and listened in the chapel
G Cmaj7
Musty vintage wine barrels
Bm7 Am7
Hidden from the sun
G Am7 C D
And echoes in the sunless lit by candles
Verse 3
G Cmaj7
We were sipping wine at Stanley’s
Bm7 Am7
And pretending we could tell
G Am7 C D
The reds and whites, the cabernet and riesling
G Cmaj7
Taking home some bottles
Bm7 Am7
Tasting by the fire
G Am7 C D
And adding to the warm glow we were feeling
Chorus
Dm7 G
Old town days in Clare Valley
Dm7 C
Misty mornings by the stream
Bm7 Am7 D
Leading me back home
Verse 4
G Cmaj7
Most lazy summer afternoon
Bm7 Am7
Spent looking for a breeze
G Am7 C D
We climbed up to spring gully and found a mountain
G Cmaj7
Saw the gulf across the coast
Bm7 Am7
Saw the sun glimpse on the sea
G Am7 C D
The sunset blew a kiss cool as a fountain
Verse 5
G Cmaj7
Cool winds turned by leaves to gold
Bm7 Am7
As the grapes are carried home
G Am7 C D
And crushed into the mellow juice of vintage wine
G Cmaj7
Life’s spent late into the night
Bm7 Am7
As the young wine turns to old
G Am7 C D
Flavored by the rich perfume of time
Outro
Dm7
Old town days
Dm7 G
Old town days in Clare Valley
Dm7
Misty mornings
Dm7 C
Misty mornings by the stream
Bm7 Am7
Leading me back home
G
Back home
