Reba McEntire - Red Roses (Won't Work Now)


CAPO: 2nd Fret



INTRO: C  Cadd9 C
         G                C
Red roses just won't work now


           G            Am
Here we go once again
            G        F                C
You've been gone and here you stand
                  G              F       G  Am7 G7/B C
With a dozen "I'm sorrys" in your hand
               G               Am
Victim of your potent charms
           G         F           C
I took you back with open arms
                   G             F        G
But along with the roses came the thorns

CHORUS:
    Am7    G7/B C         G     Am    G   F         C
And that's why   red roses just won't work now
                           G   Am   G     F         C
'Cause you've done too much to talk things out
                      G
You could tell me you love me
               Am             C ~   F      ~ C
But that's the one thing I'll always doubt
         G               C
Red roses just won't work now


INSTRUMENTAL: C     G   C


                    G            Am
Gone for good's the trust I had
           G        F             C
You led me down the garden path
              G                F      G  Am7 G7/B C
Just too many times to take you back
                   G               Am
So faithless lover why don't you
         G         F              C
Save the roses for you know who
            G                  F      G
I already know how long they'll last


CHORUS:
    Am7    G7/B C         G     Am    G   F         C
And that's why   red roses just won't work now
                           G   Am   G     F         C
'Cause you've done too much to talk things out
                      G
You could tell me you love me
               Am             C ~   F      ~ C
But that's the one thing I'll always doubt
         G               F
Red roses just won't work now
           C/G       G               C     F   Csus4   C
