Bouquet Of Roses

Here's how I do it:

(Verse 1)
I'm (1) sending you a (57) big bouquet of (1)roses
One for (57) every time you broke my (1) heart
And as the door of (57) love between us (1) closes
Tears will (57) fall like petals from my (1) heart

(Chorus 1)
I (4) begged you to different but you've (1) always (57) been un-(1) true
I'm (27) tired of forgiving, now there's (5) nothing left to (57) do
So I'm (1) sending you a (57) big bouquet of (1) roses
One for (57) every time you broke my (1) heart.

(Verse 2)
You made our lover's lane a road of sorrow
'Til at last we had to say goodbye
You're leavin' me to face each sad tomorrow
With a broken heart you taught to cry

(Chorus 2)
I know that I should hate you after all you've put me through
But how can I be bitter, when I'm still in love with you?
So I'm sending you a big bouquet of roses
One for every time you broke my heart.

For those not familiar with the "Nashville Numbering System:"  If you
sing this song in the key of C, 1 = C;  57 = G7;  5 = G;  4 = F; 27 = D7.
