Wine And Roses chords by Heidi Talbot

Verse 1:

   C                  C/B
I see the young ones slowly strolling
Am               G
On their Friday promenade
Am
The sun is low their faces glowing
C                  G      C
Hopeful hearts out on display
C                   C/B
In their dreams are wine and roses
Am             G
Quiet picnics in the park
Am
Holding hands and rubbing noses
C              G       C
Softly kissing in the dark

Verse 2:

C               C/B
I was much the same in my day
Am             G
All impatient and unsure
Am               C/B
But to love I'd soon surrender
C                  G         C
Pledge my soul so young and pure
C               C/B
For he gave me wine and roses
Am            G
Quiet picnics in the park
Am               C/B
Held my hand and we rubbed noses
C               G      C
Softly kissing in the dark


Verse 3:

C                    C/B
I'd never trade our life together
Am                 G
Though we had our rocky times
Am                   C/B
My heart it rose and fell so often
C                  G        C
Like the constant shifting tide
C                  C/B
It wasn't all just wine and roses
Am             G
Quiet picnics in the park
Am
Holding hands and rubbing noses
C              G       C
Softly kissing in the dark


Verse 4:

C             C/B
I am old and all alone now
Am                     G
My children grown and far away
Am                     C/B
They used to ask their Ma what love is
C                  G      C
I never knew just how to say
C                       C/B
That love is more than wine and roses
Am             G
Quiet picnics in the park
Am
Holding hands and rubbing noses
C              G       C
