Verse 1:

G         G#dim  Am7   D7
There's a garden far a-way
D9        Gdim     G
Where the sunlight beams
         Gdim     C         D7
Where my old time sweetheart
D9        D7       G     G#dimAm7D7
Helped me dream my dreams

G       G#dim   Am7    D7
Here be-neath a sky of gray
D9     Gdim     G
Oh how blue I'd be
     Gm       D     B7
Only for that garden
      E7         A7        D7D+
Where love still waits for me

Chorus:

G
Why should I sigh
   B7         Am
If there's no blue in the sky
                   D7          D9
I'll be happy in a cozy little spot
          D7              D9      G
Where the sweet forget-me-nots re-member
A9D+


G
Why should I pine
   B7        Am
Be-cause the sun doesn't shine
                           D7          D9
When I'll get the sweetest kiss I ever got
          D7              D9      Am  G
Where the sweet forget-me-nots re-mem-ber
CG


          Am7
I need to spend my days
      Gdim
Where fresh bouquets
G                    Gdim
Decorate the old room

D7               E7
Every blossom in bloom
A7                D#7  D7
Double daring the gloom

D+ G
So why should I wait
   B7       Am
Be-cause my rainbow is late
                          D7           D9
When I know I’ll meet the one I love a lot
          D7              D9      Am  G
Where the sweet forget-me-nots re-mem-ber
GdimD7


Verse 2:

G      G#dim  Am7    D7
In the not so long a-go
D9    Gdim     G
Happi-ness was mine
         Gdim     C    D7
Love was like the roses
D9     D7       G   GdimAm7D7
Kisses like the wine

G         G#dimAm7     D7
What have I to-day but woe
D9      Gdim      G
Nothing turns out right
       Gm     D     B7
But my silver lining
     E7      A7     D7    D+
Will soon be shiningbright
