The Star Spangled Waltz chords by Hank Snow

• Difficulty: Beginner 👶

Key: D

Verse 1:
D                           G
The band it was playing the Star Spangled Waltz
    A7                          D
The lights in the ballroom were low
D                          G
Oh twas sweet to my ears I fought back my tears
         D              A7         D
For that waltz broke my heart long ago

Verse 2:
   G                            D
My sweetheart grew jealous as I danced with a friend
    E7                          A7
And said that my love had grown false
         D                          G
Then she told me goodbye neath that old southern sky
      D             A7            D
As we danced to the Star Spangled Waltz

Verse 3:
D                                G
Then a face caught my eye as the dancers passed by
   A7                               D
It was my sweetheart who left me to pine
                                 G
As she whispered my name I could see oh so plain
         D            A7          D
That her heart it was broken like mine

Verse 4:
         G                       D
Love had won its last fight as I kissed her that night
   E7                     A7
As I did in the days long ago
       D                           G
We had found new romance though we cried as we danced
       D         A7            D     G
To the beautiful Star Spangled Waltz
       D         A7            D
To the beautiful Star Spangled Waltz
