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
