C F C
Down in old southern Texas I wandered one day

D7 G7
Where the tropical sea breezes blow

C F C
I there fell in love with a flower so rare

G7 C
And they called her the Galveston rose


F C
Her heart was as true as her blue smiling eyes

D7 G7
And as pure as the lily that grows

C F C
And the finest of gold in no way could compare

G7 C
With the curls of my Galveston rose


G7 C
I grew jealous and falsely accused her one day

D7 G7
Said her love I no longer should know

C F C
I’ve been true please believe me her little heart cried

G7 C
But I left her my Galveston rose


F C
Little then did I think that sometimes I’d repay

D7 G7
And would reap every sorrow and care

C F C
But as years passed along I grew lonely each day

G7 C
For the one I had left waiting there


G7 C
So I wrote to my darling and said I was wrong

D7 G7
I’ll return dear if you’ll only wed

C F C
But soon came a letter my flower had died

G7 C
And these are the words that I read


F C
Your sweetheart is peacefully sleeping tonight

D7 G7
In a grave where the white violets grow

C F C
And enclosed there’s a curl a last token of love

G7 C
And a note from your Galveston Rose


G7 C
I was innocent dear though you left me alone

D7 G7
But remember I loved only you

C F C
And the lock that’s enclosed is a curl from your rose

G7 C
Who’ll be waiting in heaven for you
