🎶 Million Roses

[Am]There lived an artist alone who sold his paintings and [E7]home
And left his palettes behind for this one purpose [Am]alone
This famous actress he loved only red flowers [E7]preferred
So for his money he bought one million roses for [Am]her.

Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, she could [Dm]turn
Everything in the square down below blooming [Am]red
Those in love, those in love, those in love, she would [E7]learn
Gladly leave things behind for a glance [Am]instead.

[Am]Early next day she did rise hardly believing her [E7]eyes
One million roses below under the blue morning [Am]skies
She thought that gift must have come from some unknown [E7]tycoon
Leaving the artist alone standing there all after-[Am]noon.

Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, she could [Dm]turn
Everything in the square down below blooming [Am]red
Those in love, those in love, those in love, she would [E7]learn
Gladly leave things behind for a glance [Am]instead.

[Am]Only a minute she spared for his enormous [E7]bouquet
After a late show that night she left for good on a [Am]train
There stayed the artist alone, poor and completely [E7]forlorn
But he would never regret the city with roses [Am]adorned.

Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, she could [Dm]turn
Everything in the square down below blooming [Am]red
Those in love, those in love, those in love, she would [E7]learn
Gladly leave things behind for a glance [Am]instead.
