Our Bed of Roses Chords by George Jones

[Db] _ _ [Eb] _ [Ab] The morning we moved in this [Db] house you said,
Let's make a bed of [Ab] roses. _
[Db] _ _ [Ab] _ [Eb] So hand in hand [Bb] we found that [Eb] special place,
_ And I [Ab] broke the ground. _ _
[Eb] _ _ _ I [Ab] wiped that Delta dirt from [Db] your face,
As you knelt there to [Ab] soothe him.
_ _ _ [Bbm] Oh, I'd give anything a mortal [Eb] man could give,
If you could [Ab] see them now. _ _
[Ebm] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Db] Through the kitchen [Bbm] windowpane,
_ [Db] I can see the [Ab] roses. _
_ _ The [Eb] ones we planted that first spring blooming,
Like they did when [Ab] you were here. _
[Gb] _ _ [Ab] _ _ [Db] Someone's [Fm] always left [Bbm] behind,
[Db] When the door of this life [Ab] closes. _
[Fm] _ So _ [Bbm] I sit alone and [Eb] watch it rain,
On [Db] our bed of [Ab] roses.
[E] _ _ [Gbm] _ [E] [A] Some days I sit for hours [D] at a time,
Just staring at those _ [A] roses.
[D] They [A] _ _ [E] seem so young and full of life,
But soon they'll face [A] the winter chill. _ _
[E] _ _ _ [A] I don't know how I [D] can survive,
But one thing that I [A] know _
[D] is,
[A] _ [Bm] Come springtime the roses [E] will return,
But you [A] never will. _ _
[Em] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] Through the kitchen [Gbm]
[Bm] windowpane,
[D] Lord, I can see the _ [A] roses.
[D] _ _ [A] _ [E] The ones we planted that first spring are blooming,
Like they did when you [A] were here. _ _
[Em] _ _ [A] _ _ [D] Someone's [Gbm] always left [Bm] behind,
When the [D] door of this life [A] closes. _
[Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Bm] So I sit alone and [E] watch it rain,
On our [D] bed of _ [A] roses.
[Gbm] _ _ _ _ [Bm] So I sit alone and [E] watch it rain,
On [D] our bed of _ _ roses.
