Bringin Home The Roses chords

[INTRO]

[A]

[VERSE 1]

[A]I stepped into a barroom
[A]On a cold and windy evening
S[A]aw a man there sittin' at a st[E]ool
[E]He sat there lookin' sorry
With a [E7]big bouquet of flowers
L[E]iquored up and smokin' like a foo[A]l

[VERSE 2]
S[A]o I looked at him, he looked at me
[A]And I said, "How 'bout the weather?"
[A]He said, "You know, pal, that ain't what's on my m[D]ind
[E7]I made a big mistake again
[E7]So, just for now, I will pretend
S[E]he ain't mad at home 'til closin' ti[A]me"

[CHORUS]
N/C A
So, I'm bringin' home the roses
[A]In a pretty colored paper
L[A]ike I've done so many times befo[E]re
[E]'Cause honesty ain't never done
[E]This old boy any favors
F[E]lowers might just get me through the do[A]or

[SOLO]

[A] [E] [E7] [E] [A] [B]

[VERSE 3]
I[B]'ve always been the kind of man
[B]Who learned from his experience
A[B]nd this time, I just took him at his wo[F#]rd
[F#]Thought about my wife at home
[F#]Just sittin' sad and all alone
[F#]And I know that ain't what my sweet gal deser[B]ves

[VERSE 4]
S[B]o I called her up near closin' time
[B]To tell her just what's on my mind
[B]And I'd be comin' home after two[E]
But j[F#]udgin' by her pitchy tone
[F#]And her screamin' on the telephone
[F#]I might need those flowers more than y[B]ou

[CHORUS]
[N.C.]So I'm b[B]ringin' home the roses
[B]In the pretty colored paper
[B]Like I never had to do before[F#]
[F#]'Cause honesty ain't never done
[F#]This old boy any favors
F[F#]lowers just might get me through the do[B]or
And f[F#]lowers just might get me through the do[B]or
