[Intro]
D Em7 F#m7 Bm7 E7 E7 A7 A7
[Verse 1]
D D7 G D
It was out in a moonlit garden, not far from the ballroom grand,
D Em7 F#m7 Bm7 E7 A7
A soldier and his sweetheart - went strolling hand in hand.
D G D
Tomorrow the war would call him he vowed he would be true
F#m7 B7 E7 D A7 D A7
Then from her dress she gave to him a bunch of violets blue.
[Chorus]
D D7 G D
They were only a bunch of violets, a bunch of violets blue
D Bm E7 A7
Fresh and fair and fragrant - like diamonds on the dew.
D G D
Fresh and fair and dainty as he pressed them to his heart
F#m B7 E7 A7 D
He smiled and said where'er he'd roam, from them he ne'er would part.
[Break]
F#m B7 E7 A7 D A7
[Verse 2]
D D7 G D
A soldier boy lay dying, upon the cold cold ground,
Em7 F#m Bm E7 A7
A bunch of withered violets - upon his breast was found.
D G D
Turning to his comrades with a feeble voice he sighed
F#m7 B7 E7 A A7 D
Take them back and tell her that I wore them til I died.
[Verse 3]
D D7 G D
They took the withered violets back, it being on her wedding day
D Em7 F#m Bm E7 A7
An old man's gold had won her - from her soldier far away
D G D
An old man's gold had won her, from her soldier young and tall,
F#m7 B7 E7 A A7 D Bb7
And this is what she'd said to him, that evening at the ball
[Chorus]
Eb Eb7 Ab Eb
They were only a bunch of violets - a bunch of violets blue
Eb Cm F7 Bb7
Fresh and fair and fragrant - like diamonds on the dew.
Eb Ab Eb
Fresh and fair and dainty as he pressed them to his heart
Gm C7 F7 Eb Bb7 Abm Gm Fm Eb
He smiled and said where'er he'd roam, from them he ne'er would paaaaaaaart.
