Recorded 7/24/58 Nashville, TN
Songs of Our Soil (1959)

KEY: C# / CAPO: 1 / PLAY: C

INTRO:
([C]Drink to me, [F]drink to me, [C]drink to me, [G]drink to me, drink to [C]me)

VERSE:
[C]A rose a car[F]nation a [C]lillie and an [G]orchid
[C]Make such a [G]pretty bou[C]quet (Drink to me, [G]drink to me)
[C]But only the [F]orchid was [C]worthy of [G]you
So I [C]threw all the [G]others a[C]way (Drink to me, drink to me)

[C]Then you took the orchid and you breathed on its pedals
And [D]after a day or [G]two
The [C]flowers still [F]bloom but the [C]scent's not the [G]orchids
It [C]carries the [G]savor or [C]you

(Drink to me, drink to me, drink to me, drink to me, drink to me)

VERSE:
So if you're gonna drink to me drink with your eyes
And I'll never cry for wine (Drink to me, drink to me)
Or leave a kiss in an empty coffee cup
Then pass if from your lips to mine (Drink to me, drink to me)

Cause I've got a thrist burning way down in my soul
And honey from a sugar tree
Is not have as sweet as the air that you breathe
Honey come here and drink to me

(Drink to me, drink to me, drink to me, drink to me, drink to me)
