Roses Of Picardy Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[C]She is watching by the poplars
Colinette with the sea- blue eyes
She is watching and longing and waiting
Where the long [G]white roadway lies
And a song [C]stirs in the silence
[Am]Like the [C]wind in the boughs above
[F]She listens and starts [C]and trembles
[F]For this is [C]the first son[F]g of love
Roses [C]are shining in Picardy
In the hush of the morn[A]ing dew
Roses are shining in Pi[Dm]cardy
[F]But there's nev[C]er a r[A]ose[C] like you[A][G]
And the [C]roses [G]may die[A]
with the [C]summertime
[Am]And [C]our [A]road[C]s may [G]be far a[C]part[G][E]
But [F]there's one [A]rose that dies
[Am]not in P[A]i [C]card[A]y
[Dm]That's [C]the [G]rose [F]that I
[G]wea[C]r in my heart
And the [Am]years [C]rol[F]l o[G]n
[C]for[A] ev[C]er[Am][C][Am]
[G]Till the [C]shadow [A]veils their skies
But still he loves to hold her hand
And [G]look in her sea- [F]blue eyes
And [Dm]she sees [A]the [Dm]road by t[C]he poplars
Where they met in the by
[A]gone [Am]years[C][Dm][G]
And the first song of the [C]roses
Is the [Dm]last song [G]that she hears
[C]Roses are shining in Picardy
[F]In the hus[Dm]h of the mor[C]ning dew[Am][C][A]
[G]Roses are shining in Pi[Am]cardy
[A]But there's never a rose like you
And the roses may die with
[Dm]the [F]summ[Dm]ertime
[A]And our [Dm]road[A] s may[F] be [A]fa[G]r apart[C][A][C]
But there's [A]one rose that
dies not in [Dm]Pi c[C]ardy[A]
[C]Tha[A]t's the rose that
[G]I w[C]ear in my heart
