[Intro]

C

[Verse 1]

C

We were in Louisiana

F C

I remember it well

C

Cause my uncle was gamblin'

G C

In a Shreveport hotel

[Verse 2]

C

Later that evenin'

F C

We were Fort Worth-bound

C

I saw the pretty red flowers

G C

As he passed through a town

[Verse 3]

C

Well, we pulled on over

F C

To get some fresh night air

C

And the sweet smell of roses

G C

Lingered everywhere

[Verse 4]

C

There in the moonlight

F C

On a brick-line street

C

Stood a pretty, young woman

G C

She gave a flower to me

[Chorus]

N.C. Am

There's a city of roses

G C

Way back in the pines

Am

I don't know if you know it

F G

But it ain't hard to find

F

If you're comin' from Dallas

G C

You just a-keep rollin' east

Am F

Till the City of Roses

G C

Is all that you see

[Pedal Steel Solo]

F G C Am F G C

[Verse 5]

N.C. C

Maybe you've seen it

F C

In a place that you go

C

On a downtown corner

G C

Somebody sellin' a rose

[Verse 6]

C

Well, I bet you a dollar

F C

I know where it's from

C

A little town in east Texas

G C

You'd better get you one

[Chorus]

N.C. Am

There's a city of roses

G C

Way back in the pines

Am

I don't know if you know it

F G

But it ain't hard to find

F

If you're comin' from Dallas

G C

You just a-keep rollin' east

Am F

Till the City of Roses

G C

Is all that you see

[Outro]
