{c:|NTRO: [G] [D] [A] [D]}
[D]Fancy brings a thought to mind of a [G]flower that's bright and [D]fair,
Its [G]grace and beauty [D]both combine, a [E7]brighter jewel more [A]rare;
Just [D]like a maiden that I know, who [G]shared my happy [D]lot,
She [G]whispered when we [D]parted last, "Oh, [A]you'll forget me [D]not."
{c:| [G] [D] [A] [D] }
We [D]met I really don't know where, but [G]still it's just the [D]same,
For [G]love grows in the [D]city streets, as [E7]well as in the [A]lane;
I [D]gently clasped her tiny hand, one [G]glance at me she [D]shot,
She [G]dropped her flower, I [D]picked it up, 'twas the [A]sweet forget-me-[D]not.
{c:CHORUS:}
{soc}
She's [D]graceful and, she's charming like a [G]lily in the [D]pond,
[G]Time is flying [D]swiftly by, of [E7]her I am so [A]fond;
The [D]roses and the daisies are [G]blooming 'round the [D]spot,
[G]Where we parted, [D]when she whispered, [A]"You'll forget me [D]not."

{c:| [G] [D] [A] [D] }
And [D]then there came a happy time when [G]something that I [D]said,
[G]Caused her lips to [D]murmur, "Yes", and [E7]shortly we were [A]wed;
There [D]is a house down in the lane and a [G]tiny garden [D]plot,
Where [G]grows a flower, [D]I know it well, it's the [A]sweet forget-me-[D]not.

She's [D]graceful and, she's charming like a [G]lily in the [D]pond,
[G]Time is flying [D]swiftly by, of [E7]her I am so [A]fond;
The [D]roses and the daisies are [G]blooming 'round the [D]spot,
[G]Where we parted, [D]when she whispered, [A]"You'll forget me [Bm]not."
[G]Where we parted, [D]when she whispered, [A]"You'll forget me [D]not.”
