VERSE 2:
(C)When you (G7)said that you (C)lov-ed me

Cause I'm in love with (C)some-one else
I guess I love you (G7)too

What chance of you and (F)I
So I just send an (C)orchid, dear
This (G7)orchid, means good-(C)bye

(C)Our love (G7)might have been (C)dif-fer-ent

So (C)please for-get the past dear
as time goes pass-ing (F)by
Cause we can't ever (C)love a-gain
This (G7)orchid means good-(C)bye
