Green Grow The Lilacs

 C                    Am7              A      A/F#
I used to have a sweetheart but now I've got none
                     Bm          G           A
since she's gone and left me I care not for one
                     Bm       D/B           D
since she's gone and left me contented I'll be
              D/B          Bm          A
for she loves another one better than me

 C     Am7            G                   A
green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
              A/F            G            A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you
     D/B             G            Bm      A
and by the next meeting I hope to prove true
               D/B                     A
and change the green lilacs to the red white and blue

I passed my love's window both early and late
     Am7
the look that she gave me made my heart ache
     D/C#                        Bm        G
the look that she gave me was harmfull to see
D/B                        Bm         A
for she loves another one better than me

 C     Am7            G                   A
Green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
              A/F            G            A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you
     D/B             G            Bm      A
And by the next meeting I hope to prove true
               D/B                     A
And change the green lilacs to the red white and blue

  Bm                     D/B           G
I wrote my love a letter in rosy red lines
 Bm              D/B                     G
she sent me an answer all twisted and twined
D/B                               Bm            G
saying keep your love letters and I will keep mine
Bm                A/F                       A
write to your sweetheart and I'll write to mine

 C     A               G                  A
Green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
              A/F            G            A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you
     D/B             G            Bm     A
And by the next meeting I hope to prove true
               D/B                     A
And change the green lilacs to the red white and blue
