The Violet and the Rose
by Wanda Jackson [ 3/4 Time ]
C G7
A violet fell in love with a rose
C
And started it flashing from its head to its toes
C7 F
Then one day the rose was kissed by the dew
C G7 C
A new love was born and the violet turned blue
C7 F
Roses are red violets are blue
G7 C
I'm sending red red roses to you
C7 F
If you care to send some flowers to me
C G7 C
Then send me some violets I'm blue as can be
G7
I wanted my love to bouquet with you
C
But just like the rose you've proven untrue
C7 F
A flower that's wild they say has no home
C G7 C
And just like the violet I'm left all alone
C7 F
Roses are red violets are blue
G7 C
I'm sending red red roses to you
C7 F
If you care to send some flowers to me
C G7 C
Then send me some violets I'm blue as can be
Although this song has been recorded many times by many different artists, I prefer Wanda Jackson's version, she does an excellent job with this waltz. If you would like to play and sing this classic country song just copy The Violet and The Rose lyrics and chords and enjoy.
