1. [Gm] There lived an artist alone who sold his paintings and [D7] home
And left his palettes behind for this one purpose [Gm] alone
This famous actress he loved only red flowers [D7] preferred
So for his money he bought one million roses for [Gm] her
Chorus: Anywhere, anywhere, anywhere, she could [Cm] turn
Everything in the square down below blooming [Gm] red
Those in love, those in love, those in love, she would [D7] learn
Gladly leave things behind for a glance [Gm] instead
2. [Gm] Early next day she did rise hardly believing her [D7] eyes
One million roses below under the blue morning [Gm] skies
She thought that gift must have come from some unknown [D7] tycoon
Leaving the artist alone standing there all after-[Gm] noon.
3. [Gm] Only a minute she spared for his enormous [D7] bouquet
After a late show that night she left for good on a [Gm] train
There stayed the artist alone, poor and completely [D7] forlorn
But he would never regret the city with roses [Gm] adorned
