INTRO:
NONE
VERSE:
D G
Pressed between the sacred pages
D
Pulled from this stem so long ago
A7
Rose pedals mark the dyin' stages
G D D
Of the truest love I'll ever know
G
Woh the faded scarlet blossom
D
Are long forgotten love bouquets
A7
Seem now so sad and almost silly
G D D
Seem more than fair for me to say
CHORUS:
D G
I blame it all on the roses
D
I will until my dyin' day
A7
If I can't win her love with roses
G D D
Baby please lay wild flowers on my grave
VERSE:
G
I sent her roses by the dozen
D
Sent 'em straight up to her door
A7
She sent 'em back, she said she wasn't
G D D
Fooled by those flowers anymore
CHORUS:
D G
I blame it all on the roses
D
I will until my dyin' day
A7
If I can't win your love with roses
G D D
Baby please lay wild flowers on my grave
