Roses Are Red

E            B7                E
A long long time ago on graduation day
           A            B7               E
You handed me your book   I signed this way


E          A                       E
Roses are red my love violets are blue
          A            B7                  E
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you


E          B7                              E
We dated through high school and when the big day came
         A             B7            E
I wrote into your book   next to my name


E          A                       E
Roses are red my love violets are blue
          A            B7                  E
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you


A             B7            E
  Then I went far away and you found someone new
A               B7            E
  I read your letter dear and I wrote back to you


           A                       E
Roses are red my love violets are blue
          A                  B7                 E
Sugar is sweet my love good luck may God bless you too


              B7                      E
Is that your little girl she looks a lot like you
               A              B7             E
Someday some a boy will write   in her book too


E          A                       E
Roses are red my love violets are blue
          A            B7                  E
Sugar is sweet my love but not as sweet as you
