A Dozen White Roses Alecia Nugent
CAPO: 2
INTRO: D C G C G C G
[G]I HEARD HIS TIME WAS SHORT SO I
[C]WENT TO SEE MY OLD [G]FRIEND
WHEN I WALKED THROUGH THE DOOR HE SAID
[C]SURE GOOD TO SEE YOU [G]AGAIN
[C]SIT DOWN HERE BY ME,
DOC SAYS MY FUTURE AIN'T [G]BRIGHT
BUT EVEN IF I DON'T BEAT IT THERE'S A
[C]PART OF MY [D]PAST THAT WON'T [G]DIE
HE POINTS TO A PICTURE AND [C]SMILES
FROM HIS EASY [G]CHAIR
AS HE RELIVES THE MOMENTS, SAYS [C]GIRL
THAT WAS HEAVEN RIGHT [G]THERE
[C]YOU CAN SEE HIS HEART'S BROKEN
AS A LONESOME TEAR DROPS TO THE [G]FLOOR
AND ALONG WITH THE SILENCE THAT [C]FELL
CAME A [D]KNOCK AT THE [G]DOOR
CHORUS:
A BOUQUET [Em]WRAPPED UP IN [C]RIBBONS AND [D]BOWS
TOO [Em]LITTLE TOO [C]LATE I [D]SUPPOSE
C STOP (1ST-TIME ONLY)
BUT HE CLINGS TO THE LAST RAY OF HOPE
AND A DOZEN WHITE [G]ROSE[C]S
[G]THEY WERE MEANT FOR EACHOTHER
THAT WAS [C]CLEAR RIGHT FROM THE [G]START
WHAT A SHAME TOO MUCH PRIDE AND A [C]JEALOUS HEART
KEPT THEM [G]APART
A [C]CARD AND SOME FLOWERS
AIN'T QUITE ENOUGH TO MAKE [G]AMENDS
FOR FIFTY YEARS LIVING A L[C]IFE
OF [D]WHAT SHOULD HAVE [G]BEEN
REPEAT CHORUS G C G C G
