Darling Daisies       (Listen to sample)

 

               A                                D

1. When first I met my darling daisies

      E                              A

    down by the garden wall,

                                                            D

    I was walking along the street so shady,

               E                E7       A

    I was going for a twilight call.

 

      A                                                     D        E                              A

I’d love to sing and dance among the roses down by the garden wall,

                                              D             E                    E7       A

‘tis there I'd like to meet my daisies, when I make a twilight call.

 

                      A                            D

2. She was sleeping in a bed of roses,

        E                                A

    dreaming of the by and by,

                                                         D

    while the little birds around were singing,

     E                     E7              A

    up above the branches so high. 

 

+ CHORUS

 

                A                                       D

3. If you want to see a bright-eyed beauty,

      E                                   A

    bright as the stars that shine,

                                                        D

    just come and go with me some evening,

          E                    E7       A

    to see that pretty girl of mine.   

 

+ CHORUS
