Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet

         G
When the boy came to the door

  D
I didn't know what to say

    A                            D
But eighteen yellow roses came today

                A                   D
I opened up the card to see what it said

                      A
I couldn't believe my eyes

           D    D7
When I had read

       G                       D
Though you belong to another I love you anyway

     A               A7            D
Yes, eighteen yellow roses came to day
[Verse]
F                               D
I never doubted your love for a minute

F                                  D
I always thought that you would be true

F                                D
But now this box and the flowers in it

F                                G     A7
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do

    D               A                    D
But ask to meet the boy that's done this thing

                         A                  D    D7
And find out if he's got plans to buy you a ring

       G                          D
'Cause eighteen yellow roses will fade and die one day

      A                              D
But a father's love will never fade away
Will never fade away
