Wine Colored Roses(Ukulele chords)

	        D                G   
TODAY I GOT A LONG LETTER 
     D                       G   Am  G 
FROM ONE WHO STILL CARES FOR ME 
    C   
SHE ASKED LOT'S OF QUESTIONS 
           G  
LIKE WOULD I CALL HER SOMETIME 
        A                    D  
AND WAS I GETTIN' BACK ON MY FEET 
 
 
    D                       G 
SHE ASKED IF I HAD STOPPED DRINKIN' 
     D                        G    Am  G 
LIKE I PROMISED HER SON LONG AGO 
    C  
THE WORDS WOULDN'T COME 
       G               C 
WHEN I CALLED AND SHE ANSWERED 
        G         D          G  
OH, BUT I FOUND A WAY TO SAY NO 

                     Am  G   F  C 
I SENT HER SOME WINE COLORED ROSES 
G   C  Bm Am  G            D 
THE COLOR OF GRAPES ON THE VINE 
     G                  Am  G   C 
WHEN SHE SEE'S THE WINE COLORED ROSES 
        G             D7          G 
THEY'LL TELL HER I'M STILL ON THE WINE
 
 
 
      D                    G 
THE ROSES WILL SAY I STILL LOVE HER 
         D                      G     Am  G  
AND THE COLOR WILL CAUSE HER TO CRY 
C                    G   
ONE DOZEN REASONS TO TELL HER I'M SORRY 
    G             D             G  
AND TWELVE PRETTY FLOWERS DON'T LIE 
 
 
CHORUS
