[Verse 1.]
C F C
Roses are red violets are blue
F C
Primroses pale on a velvet green hue
Dm Am
Warm summer days by cool waterfalls
G7
Like music we hear
F C G7
Those things we'll always hold dear
Am F C
Like an old fashioned waltz
[Verse 2.]
F
When the moonlight shines down
C
On the Hollywood world
F C
And the heroine waits for her love to return
Dm Am
And the violins play from behind garden walls
G7 F C Dm
Oh how I'd love to remain with the silver refrain
Am F C
Of an old fashioned waltz
[Verse 3.]
F C
And they dance round the floor and there's no one else there
F C
And the world is no more and there's never a care
Dm Am
By the perfect lagoon as the nightingale calls
G7 F C Dm
With only the moon and the nostalgic tune
Am F C
Of an old fashioned waltz
[Verse 4.]
C F C
Roses are red violets are blue
F C
Primroses pale on a velvet green hue
Dm Am
Warm summer days by cool waterfalls
G7
Like music we hear
F C G7
Those things we'll always hold dear
Am F C
Like an old fashioned waltz
