Mama Liked The Roses       
Recorded by Elvis Presley
Written by Johnny Christopher

C C Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Oh mama liked the roses she grew them in the yard
Dm Dm E7 E7 A7 A7
But winter always came around and made the growing way too hard
Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Oh mama liked the roses and when she had the time
Dm Dm E7 E7 A7 A7
She'd decorate the living room for all us kids to see

D7 D7 G7 G7 D7 D7 G7 G7
When I hear the Sunday bells ringing in the morning
E7 E7 A7 A7 D7 D7 G7 G7
I remember crying when she used to sing
Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Oh mama liked the roses but most of all she cared
Dm Dm E7 E7 A7 A7
About the way we learned to live and if we said our prayers

Spoken:
Dm Dm G7 G7
You know I kept the family bible
C C A7 A7
With a rose that she saved inside
Dm Dm E7 E7
It was pressed between the pages
A7 A7
Like it had found a place to hide

Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Oh mama liked the roses in such a special way
Dm Dm E7 E7 A7 A7
We bring them every mother's day and put them on her grave
Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Oh mama liked the roses mm-mm-mm
Dm Dm G7 G7 C C A7 A7
Mama liked the roses mm-mm-mm
Dm Dm G7 G7 C C
Oh mama liked the roses mm-mm-mm
