The Violet And The Rose

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

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

[Instrumental]

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

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