I Overlooked An Orchid:Mickey Gilley. #1 on BB Hot Country on PLAYBOY Records in 1974. INTRO: G #1.
GThe orchid is a flower Fthat Cblooms so tenderGly. GIt thrills the fairest lady Em7of the Dland. If Gplaced beside a blushing rose the Crose could not comGpare. GBut how was such as DI, to underGstand?D G
CHORUS:
GI overlooked an orchid while Csearching for a Grose. GThe orchid that I overlooked was Dyou. The Grose that I was searching for has Cproved to be unGtrue. GThe orchid, that I Dfind, my dear, was Gyou.
INTERLUDE: G D G #2.
GThe rose has Dlost its Gcolor, but the Corchid stays the Gsame. GAnd I'm alone to face these lonely Dyears. I Gdidn't see the orchid, I was Clooking for a Grose. GAnd now I pay the Dprice with bitter Gtears.
CHORUS:
GI overlooked an orchid while Csearching for a Grose. GThe orchid that I overlooked was Dyou. The Grose that I was searching for has Cproved to be unGtrue. GThe orchid, that I Dfind, my dear, was Gyou.
A seventies smash from Kraziekhat.
