George Jones - A Good Year For The Roses guitar chord

(A) I can hardly bare the sight of lipstick

on the cigar-(D)-ettes there (A) in the ashtray

lyin? cold the way you left them

at least your lips caress-(D)-ed them (A) while you packed

And a (D) lip print on a half-filled cup of coffee

that you poured and (A) didn?t drink

but at (E) least you thought you wanted it

that?s so much more than I can say (A) for me

Chorus:

But what a good year for the (D) roses

(E) many blooms still linger (A) there

the lawn could stand another (D) mowin?

(E) it?s funny, I don?t even (A) care

and when you turned and walked (D) away

(E) and as the door behind you (D) closes (A)

the only thing I know to (D) say

(E) it?s been a good year for the (D) roses (A)

(A) After three full years of marriage

it?s the first time that you (D) haven?t (A) made the bed

I guess the reason we?re not talkin?

there?s so little left to say, (D) we (A) haven?t said

while a (D) million thoughts go runnin? through my mind

I find I haven?t (A) spoke a word

and from the (E) bedroom those familiar sounds

of our one baby?s cryin? goes un-(A)-heard

Repeat Chorus
