Roses Are Red

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


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


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