Intro D-G-A7-G-D-G-D-A7-D

D                                G
Hello you said the day we met, handing me a yellow rose
     A7                                       G              D
You asked me out and to your surprise and to mine I said I'd go 
                                 G
I thought it so romantic and I found you sweet and bold 
        D                                   A7            D
Though we'd only met I still said yes to a single yellow rose

 D                                          G
And for years to come you were the one to sleep with me at night 
     A7                                      G                D
To laugh and talk and share my thoughts and hold me when I'd cry
                           G
And on every occasion and for no good reason to
   D                              A7                 D           
A big bouquet or a single yellow rose was sent from you

Chorus:
 D       G                   D
Yellow roses, the color of sunshine
                 A7                           D 
You loved me at one time, why did you have to go
         G                          D  
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love
                  A7                        D
My bright yellow rose buds I still love you so

D                           G
I never see a yellow rose that I didn't think of you
       A7                                  G                 D
It's still my favorite flower though the yellow's turned to blue
                                    G
The day you left my teardrops fell upon your farewell not
           D                                 A7            D
You said goodbye like you said hello with a single yellow rose

Chorus:
D        G                  D
Yellow roses, the color of sunshine
                 A7                          D
You loved me at one time, why did you have to go
         G                          D
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love
                  A7                           D
My bright yellow rose buds Oh I still love you so

D        G                  D
Yellow roses, the color of sunshine
                 A7                           D 
You loved me at one time, why did you have to go
         G                              D      
Yellow roses, are you sending your new love
                   A7                       D
My bright yellow rose buds I still love you so
