#1.
.............G7
A long, long time ago,
          C

You handed me your book,
G7            C 
I signed this way...
 
CHORUS:#1.
C7        F
Roses are red, my love, 
            C
Violets are blue.
         F
Sugar is sweet, my love,
    G7              C
But not as sweet as you. 

#2.
C        G7
We dated through high school,
             C
And when the big day came.
          F
I wrote into your book,
G7         C 
Next to my name...

CHORUS:#1.

F           G    G7
Then I went far away,
    C                 C7 
And you found someone new.
F           G7
I read your letter dear,
    C       F7      G7
And I wrote back to you...

CHORUS:#2.

C7        F
Roses are red, my love,
            C    Am
Violets are blue,
         F                 
Sugar is sweet, my love,

good luck, may god bless you. 

#4.
C            G7
Is that your little girl?
            C
She looks a lot like you.
             F
Someday some boy will write,
G7           C 
In her book, too. 

CHORUS:#1.
