Tracy Byrd - Redneck roses

^D#Not so long ago on his ^Cmway home from work He?d ^G#stop by the side of the ^A#road Step ^G#out of that old beat up ^A#Ford, that he ^D#drove And he?d walk around ^Cmsearchin? the ground For a ^G#handful of wildflower ^A#blooms ^G#Thinkin? of where he?d be ^A#soon, there with ^D#her?

She called them redneck ^G#roses, ^A#cause that?s what they ^D#were A simple ^G#gift of love from a country boy to his ^A#girl G# A# CmA#G# She called them redneck roses they didn?t cost a dime But they brought a smile to her ^A#face every ^D#time

^D#Now it?s years down the line she ^Cmsits home alone It?s the ^G#usual end of the ^A#day Once ^G#again he?s still working ^A#late, but he never ^D#calls They?ve got a house on a hill and no ^Cmproblems with bills And a ^G#baby that?s on the ^A#way But her ^G#heart longs for those yester^A#days and his ^D#love

She called th^G#em redn^A#eck roses, cause that?s^D# what they were A simple ^G#gift of love from a country boy to his ^A#girl G# A# CmA#G# She called them redneck roses they didn?t cost a dime But they brought a smile to her ^A#face every ^D#time

They could ^G#still put a smile on her ^A#face If he only had the ^D#time
