The Violet And The Rose

C                            F
A violet fell in love with a rose
               G7                            C
And started it blushing from its head to its toe
                                        F
Then one day the rose was kissed by the dew
F              C            G7            C
A new love was born and the violet turned blue.

[Chorus]
C                          F
Roses are red, violets are blue
            G7               C
I'm sending red red roses to you
                                    F
If you care to send some flowers to me
                  C            G7          C
Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be.

[Instrumental]

[Verse 2]
C                                F
I wanted my love to bouquet with you
                  G7                   C
But just like the rose you've proven untrue
                                     F
A flower that's wild they say has no home
F                 C          G7        C
And just like the violet I'm left all alone.

[Chorus]
C                          F
Roses are red, violets are blue
            G7               C
I'm sending red red roses to you
                                    F
If you care to send some flowers to me
                  C            G7          C
Then send me some violets, I'm blue as can be.
