Tuning:E A D G B E
Capo:no capo
[Verse]
C Am7 A A/F#
I used to have a sweetheart but now I've got none
Bm G A
since she's gone and left me I care not for one
Bm D/B D
since she's gone and left me contented I'll be
D/B Bm A
for she loves another one better than me
[Chorus]
C Am7 G A
green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
A/F G A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you
D/B G Bm A
and by the next meeting I hope to prove true
D/B A
and change the green lilacs to the red white and blue
[Verse 2]

I passed my love's window both early and late
Am7
the look that she gave me made my heart ache

the look that she gave me was harmfull to see
D/B Bm A
for she loves another one better than me
[Chorus]
C Am7 G A
Green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
A/F G A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you

And by the next meeting I hope to prove true
D/B A
And change the green lilacs to the red white and blue
[Verse 3]
Bm D/B G
I wrote my love a letter in rosy red lines
Bm D/B G
she sent me an answer all twisted and twined
D/B Bm G
saying keep your love letters and I will keep mine
Bm A/F A
write to your sweetheart and I'll write to mine
[Chorus]
C A G A
Green grow the lilacs all sparkling with dew
A/F G A
I'm lonely my darling since parting with you
D/B G Bm A
And by the next meeting I hope to prove true
D/B A
And change the green lilacs to the red white and blue
