Twelve Long Stem Roses Lyrics & Chords By Mel Tillis

As I walked through my garden today picking flowers for a pretty bouquet
Never many shades of blue white lilies and violets too
But I've picked these long stem roses just for you
I'm sending roses twelve long stem roses will you not let them wither and die
I've picked them just for you so I'm sending my love to
I hope these long stem roses cheer you when you cry

I could send just any rose you've had them all before
But somehow in a different way long stem roses mean more
So I'm sending roses...
I'm sending roses...
I hope these long stem roses cheer you when you cry
