Since she's gone and left me, contented I'll be

I passed my love's window both early and late

The look that she gave me made my heart ache

ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
For she loves another one better than me
ch]G[/ch
Green grow the lilacs, all sparkling with dew

Write to your sweetheart and I'll write to mine"

ch]G[/ch] [ch]C[/ch
And by the next meeting, I hope to prove true
ch]G[/ch] [ch]D7[/ch] [ch]G[/ch
And change the green lilacs to the red, white and blue
