     C                Em                         G             Em

1.      What do you do when the people go home,

      C                Em                         G             Em

    and what do you do when the show is all done.

         C                 D             Am             Em

    I know what I'll do in the alone of my time,

              G          C                D  A      Em

    but what will I do with the leftover wine.

1.    A line from a poem of my childhood has said,

C                                   Em                         G                 Em

    that visions of sugarplums were gonna dance in my head.

     C                      D          Am                     Em

    I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme,

                G               C     D              Em

    but I'll still have a bowl of leftover wine.

 

C                           D           A                       Em

    I'll spend my whole life making the time rhyme,

                       C                          D                   A                             Em

and then I’m gonna run to the people and I'll sing them a song of mine.

                        G             D          - A                         Em

You know I'm gonna do anything,      just to take up time,

               G               D                 A           Em

‘cause I can't find a taker for the leftover wine.

 

    Em - C - D - A - Em    G - D - A - Em ~

 

3. = repeat verse 1        + CHORUS

 

                   D                        A                       Em

    I'll drink some of yours, if you'll drink all of mine,

                      G                     D                - A             Em

    because I can't stand the taste of that      leftover wine. (3x) …..
