I Threw Away The Rose chords

[INSTRUMENTAL]
[G]Now all my social [C]friends look down their [G]noses
Cause I [D]kept the wine and [D7]threw away the [G]rose

[VERSE]
[G]Once I lived a [C]life...of wine and [G]roses
And I d[D]rank...a lot back then for one [G]concern
Success for me lay [C]just...around the [G]corner
I thought my [A]social friends would [A7]help me make me [D]turn

[CHORUS]
NC [G] [C] [G]
But now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
A v[D]ictim...of the drunken life I [G]chose
Now all my social [C]friends look down their [G]noses
Cause I [D]kept the wine and [D7]threw away the [G]rose

[INSTRUMENTAL]
N[G]ow all my social f[C]riends look down their [G]noses
Cause I [D]kept the wine and [D7]threw away the [G]rose

[VERSE]
[G]I stood by and watched...the [C]bottle take con-t[G]rol of me
The [D]turn I made was not...the one I'd [G]planned
And I watched my social s[C]tandings slip [G]away from me
While I w[A]atched the bottle s[A7]lowly...take c[D]ommand

[CHORUS]
NC [G] [C] [G]
But now I'm paying for the days of wine and roses
A v[D]ictim...of the drunken life I [G]chose
Now all my social f[C]riends look down their [G]noses
Cause I [D]kept the wine and [D7]threw away the [G]rose

[OUTRO]
Cause I [D]kept the wine and [D7]threw away the [G]rose [G]
