The Village Square

Intro

Nana nana

Nana nana

Chorus

My fiddle weeps across the village square

My fiddle weeps

The wine is sour but I drink it anyway

The wine is sour

Verse 1

The Danube takes my name and never brings it home

Sixteen winters I have wandered

Grandmother's prayer is stitched into my coat

Still the roads grow longer

Pre-Chorus

I left the door unlocked

I left the candle burning

Someone must come back

Chorus

My fiddle weeps across the village square

My fiddle weeps

The wine is sour but I drink it anyway

The wine is sour

Verse 2

A woman sold me apples near the market wall

She had my mother's laugh

Bought the whole basket just to hear it once

Then I walked away too fast

Pre-Chorus

I left the door unlocked

I left the candle burning

Someone must come back

Chorus

My fiddle weeps across the village square

My fiddle weeps

The wine is sour but I drink it anyway

The wine is sour

Instrumental Break

Bridge

Twist the ribbon

Twist the wrist

Kiss the fiddle

Miss the kiss

Chorus

My fiddle weeps across the village square

My fiddle weeps

The wine is sour but I drink it anyway

The wine is sour

Post-Chorus

Hey da da

Hey da da

Hoy da da

Hoy da da
