    Candy kisses         wrapped in paper,

                          C              G          C       - C7

    you'd rather have them any old time.

 

                        F                           C

    You don't mean it when you whisper

                   D                                G    - G7

    those sweet love words in my ear.

2. I build a castle           out of dreams, dear,

                            C                          G

    I thought that you were building, too.

                    C        - C7               F

    Now my castles         all have fallen

                    C     G              C       - C7

    and I am left alone and blue.

 

                      F                              C

    Once my heart was filled with gladness,

                         D                     G      - G7

    now there's sadness, only tears.

                C        - C7                     F

    Candy kisses         wrapped in paper

                             C            G            C

    mean more to you than mine do, dear.
