Wine Colored Roses
recorded by George Jones

1. [G7]Today I got a[C] long letter[G7] from one who[C] still cares for me.
She[F] asked lot's of questions,[C] like would I call her sometime.
And[D7] was I gettin back[G7] on my feet. She asked if I had sotped
[C]drinkin. Like[G7] I promised her[C] son long[F] ago. The words wouldn't
come wh-[C]en I called and she answered[G7] Oh, but I found a way to [C]say no.

(chorus)

[G7] I sent her some[C] wine color-[G7]ed roses. The color of
grapes on[C] the vine[F] when she see's the[C] wine colored roses.
They'll tell her[G7] I'm still on[C] the wine.

2. The[G7] roses will say I[C] still love her[G7] and the color will cause her
to[C] cry.[F] One dozen rea-[C]sons to tell her I'm sorry, and twelve pretty
[G7]flowers don't[C] lie. (To Chours:)

(chorus)
