Wine Colored Roses Chords & Lyrics - George Jones

to[D]day i got a long [G]letter
from [D]one who still cares for [G]me [Am] [G]
she [C]asked lot's of questions
like would [G]i call her sometime
and was [A]i gettin' back on my [D]feet

she [D]asked if i had stopped d[G]rinkin'
like [D]i promised her son long a[G]go [Am] [G]
the [C]words wouldn't come
when i [G]called and she a[C]nswered
oh, but [G]i found a [D]way to say [G]no

[CHORUS]
i sent her some wine [Am]colo[G]red [F]ros[C]es
[G]the [C]col[Bm]or [Am]of g[G]rapes on the [D]vine
when [G]she see's the wine [Am]colo[G]red [C]roses
they'll [G]tell her i'm s[D7]till on the [G]wine

the ro[D]ses will say i still [G]love her
and the c[D]olor will cause her to [G]cry [Am] [G]
[C]one dozen reasons to [G]tell her i'm sorry
and [G]twelve pretty [D]flowers don't [G]lie

[Chorus]
