COWPIE Country Music Lyrics
George Jones
Wine Colored Roses
[D7] Today I got a long [G] letter. From [D7] one who still cares for [G] me. She [C] asked lot's of questions, like would [G] I call her sometime. And was [A7] I gettin back on my [D7] feet. She asked if I had stopped [G] drinkin. Like I [D7] promised her so long [G] ago. The [C] words wouldn't come when I [G] called and she answered. Oh, but I found a [D7] way to say [G] no. CHOURS: [G] I sent her some wine colored [C] roses. The [G] color of grapes on the [D7]vine. [G] When she see's the wine colored [C]roses. They'll tell her I'm [D7] still on the [G] wine. The [D7] roses will say I still [G] love her. And the [D7] color will cause her to [G] cry. [C] One dozen reasons to [G] tell her I'm sorry, and [D7] twelve pretty flowers don't [G] lie. (To Chours:) tag: I sent her some wine colored [C] roses
