The little green flower with the yellow on top
     G7                           C
You told me the name but I soon forgot
                     F
I know roses and forget-me-nots
             G7                                    C
What's that little green flower with the yellow on top

We got married in a little white church
  G7                        C
I had a big red rose on my shirt
                              F
You had some flowers but you gave them away
        G7                                    C
And the little green flower was bloomin' that day


It's that little green flower...


Remember the night that I came home drunk

Stopped in the driveway got you a bunch

You got mad said they shouldn't be picked

They were there next morning when I woke up sick


It's that little green flower.

It's been a long time since I gave you that ring
      G7                                 C
You often said I didn't know a bloomin' thing
                           F
But happy anniversary and look what I got
      G7                                     C
