I found you among the roses

1. Once again, dear, it's rose time, it's June time,
C G
all
the flowers they bloom as of you,
D
and
the robin's sweet song is singing,
G
as I
walk here to greet you once more.
G
A year has passed here since I
came here,
D G
this
old love of ours to renew,
G
and I
found you among the roses
D G
the
day I come back to you.
G
I found you among the roses,
C G
the day I come back to you,
D G
all my gladness was there in a
garden so fair,
A A7 D
was the happiest moment I knew.
G
Your lips were the color of roses,
C G
I pray them as flowers pray the dew,
C G
it is there, dear, in your rose
garden,
A D
G
where I found you. + G - D - G
G
2. I remember the kiss that you gave me,
C G
for
your cheeks like the rose flushed red.
G
‘Twas
a kiss, dear, that meant two for me
A D
for
all the harsh words I have said.
G
Red roses are blooming around
me,
C G
I loved every one of them, too,
C
G
for
it was there, dear, in your rose garden,
A
D G
where
I found you.
G
I found you among the roses,
C G
the day I come back to you,
D
G
all my gladness was there in a
garden so fair,
A A7 D
was the happiest moment I knew.
G
Your lips were the color of roses,
C G
I pray them as flowers pray the dew,
C G
it is there, dear, in your rose
garden,
A D
G
where I found you.
