Verse 1:
  C majorC    G7G7   C majorC
To- night I send an orchid
            FF
And though I'll al-ways care
            C majorC
This orchid means good- bye to you
          G7G7
and to our love af- fair
   C majorC
It's just my way to tell you
             FF
And I hope that you want cry
         C majorC
But I be-long to some-one else
   G7G7         C majorC
this orchid means good- bye

Verse 2:
C majorC    G7G7      C majorC
When you said that you lov-ed me
          FF
I knew it wouldn't do
            C majorC
Cause I'm in love with some-one else
          G7G7
I guess I love you too
    C majorC
But I'm marri-ed to a-nother
            FF
What chance of you and I
         C majorC
So I just send an orchid, dear
   G7G7         C majorC
This orchid, means good- bye

Verse 3:
C majorC    G7G7       C majorC
Our love might have been dif-fer-ent
          FF
But I made sa-cred vows
         C majorC
And I can't ever break the heart
            G7G7
that I hold with mine, now
  C majorC
So please for-get the past dear
           FF
as time goes pass-ing by
          C majorC
Cause we can't ever love a-gain
   G7G7         C majorC
