Eighteen yellow roses came today
E B7 E E6 E7
Eighteen yellow roses in a pretty bouquet
A E C#m
When the boy came to the door, I didn't know what to say
B7 E B7
But eighteen yellow roses came today
E B7 E
I opened up the card to see what it said
E B7 E
I couldn't believe my eyes when I had read
A E C#m
"Though you belong to another I love you anyway"
B7 E B7/F#
Yes, eighteen yellow roses came today
G E
I never doubted your love for a minute
G E
I always thought that you would be true
G E
But now this box, and the flowers in it
G E B7
I guess there's nothin' left for me to do
E B7 E
But ask to meet the boy that's done this thing
E B7 E
And find out if he's got plans to buy you a ring
A E C#m
'Cause eighteen yellow roses will wilt and die one day
B7 E B7 E
But a father's love will never fade away will never fade away
