1.      Once I had a boyfriend,         he was so tall and strong,

Bb                                                      A

    and he knew what I needed when I was all alone.

Dm                              - C

    Then he said to me,      ‘I’ll care for you day and night,

Bb                                                 A

    I’ll never forsake you, yes, I’ll stay by your side.’

 

D                                 - Bm

    Don’t be afraid, girl,         you’re the one, the one I love !

D                                  - Bm

    Don’t be afraid, girl,        you’re the one, the one I love !

             - D                                          Bm

He said,     ‘cause you’re my blossom lady,

Gm     - C                     Dm   - C                     Dm  - C                     Dm 

you’re       my blossom lady,      my blossom lady,      my blossom lady.

2.      But one year later         I was as lonely as I was before,

Bb                                             A

    I saw my boyfriend at some other girl’s door.

Dm                                               - C

    And there was that hurt again,       as on the day we broke away,

Bb                                              A

    then I remembered what he used to say.
