[Chorus]

C               F        C
I’ve tasted the wines of France

         G          C        F           
And I’ve tasted the wines of Spain                  

    C             F           C
And though many a wine is the same

          G                        C
There are none like the wines of Madeira

C                F        C
I’ve courted the girls of France

         G           C        F
And I’ve courted the girls of Spain

           C           F             C
And though most pretty girls are the same

          G                        C
There are none like the girls of Madeira

[Bridge 1]

C
Oh the girls who tend the vineyards 

                    G
In the provinces of France

Are the gayest girls for courting

                          C
And they love to sing and dance

And they’re happy in their vineyards

                      G
And they smile upon romance

                              G7
And indeed I would defend for you 

                 C
The provinces of France

[Bridge ]

                  F           C
But there’s not a vineyard anywhere

            G                C
That can compare with what I know

F                  C             G
Why? I’ll tell you why or better yet

               C
Come and we’ll go

C
Oh, the girls who tend the vineyards 

G
In the provinces of Spain

G
They are spirited and fiery

C
Whether beautiful or plain

C
They are splendid in their vineyards

G
In their languorous refrain

                               G7
And Indeed, I would defend for you

C
The provinces of Spain

                  F           C
But there’s not a vineyard anywhere

            G                C
That can compare with what I know

F                  C             G
Why? I’ll tell you why or better yet

               C
Come and we’ll go

[Chorus]

C                F        C
You boast of the wines in France

        G            C        F
And you boast of the wines in Spain

         C              F    C
But your boast makes it very plain

            G                      C
That you’ve not had the wines of Madeira

C                F        C
You boast of the girls of France

        G            C         F
And you boast of the girls of Spain

         C             F    C
But your boast make it very plain

            G                       C
That you’ve not seen the girls of Madeira
