I Overlooked An Orchid

G                      G7   C   
The orchid is a flower that 
      G
blooms so tender'ly
To thrill the fairest lady of the 
D7
land
   G                        G7
If placed beside a blush'in rose
    C              G
the rose could not compare
                    D7         
But how was such as I to under- 
 G
stand

[Chorus]
G                           
I over looked an orchid while 
  C                G
search-ing for a rose
The orchid that I over looked was 
D7
you

    G                          G7
The rose that I was search-ing for,
    C                G
has proved to be un- true
                 D7               
The orchid now I find my dear was 
G
you

[Verse 2]
    G
The rose has lost it's color
        C             G
But the orchid is the same
And I'm alone to face these lone-ly 
D7
years
  G
I didn't see the orchid
            C         G
I was look- ing for a rose
                  D7               
And now I pay the price with better
 G
 tears

[Chorus]
G                           
I over looked an orchid while 
  C                G
search-ing for a rose
The orchid that I over looked was 
D7
you
    G                          G7
The rose that I was search-ing for,
    C                G
has proved to be un- true
                 D7               
The orchid now I find my dear was 
G
you
