Bringin Home The Roses by Jesse Daniel
Bringin Home The Roses
Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:2nd fret
[Intro]
A
[Verse 1]
A
I stepped into a barroom
A
On a cold and windy evening
A E
Saw a man there sittin' at a stool
E
He sat there lookin' sorry
E7
With a big bouquet of flowers
E A
Liquored up and smokin' like a fool
[Verse 2]
A
So I looked at him, he looked at me
A
And I said, "How 'bout the weather?"
A D
He said, "You know, pal, that ain't what's on my mind
E7
I made a big mistake again
E7
So, just for now, I will pretend
E A
She ain't mad at home 'til closin' time"
[Chorus]
N/C A
So, I'm bringin' home the roses
A
In a pretty colored paper
A E
Like I've done so many times before
E
'Cause honesty ain't never done
E
This old boy any favors
E A
Flowers might just get me through the door
[SOLO]
A E E7 E A B
[Verse 3]
B
I've always been the kind of man
B
Who learned from his experience
B F#
And this time, I just took him at his word
F#
Thought about my wife at home
F#
Just sittin' sad and all alone
F# B
And I know that ain't what my sweet gal deserves
[Verse 4]
B
So I called her up near closin' time
B
To tell her just what's on my mind
B E
And I'd be comin' home after two
F#
But judgin' by her pitchy tone
F#
And her screamin' on the telephone
F# B
I might need those flowers more than you
[Chorus]
N.C. B
So I'm bringin' home the roses
B
In the pretty colored paper
B F#
Like I never had to do before
F#
'Cause honesty ain't never done
F#
This old boy any favors
F# B
Flowers just might get me through the door
F# B
And flowers just might get me through the door
