[Verse 1]
Cadd9
A couple of pretty flowers
Is what I brought to you
Em7
I saw you through a broken window
With a different point of view
Cadd9
You had signs of depression
From a long line of sin
Em7
And your face tells a story
'Bout the places you have been
Cadd9
I love you so,
Em7
I thought you should know
[Verse 2]
Cadd9
And that muddy waters flowin
And as you take my hand
Em7
Past the creek down by the holler
Or through your daddies land
Cadd9
I could buy you a diamond
But I cannot change your world
Em7
Cuz I ain't got no money
Cadd9
You'll never be my girl no
Em7
I thought you should know
[Verse 3]
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
And you was gonna be a singer
And a big movie star
Em7
But you can't catch no breaks baby
And Hollywood is hard
Cadd9
Now you work down at the time out
Off a one fifty five
Em7
And you're dancing for your dollar
Just tryin to stay alive
Cadd9
It hurts me so
Em7
I thought you should know
[Verse 4]
Cadd9
And you feed your addiction
Oh! with your crystal meth
Em7
And I plea for your life
as it takes you to your death
Cadd9
You make your deal with the devil
As your looks begin to fade
Em7
I saw you laughin through the tears
As you slowly slipped away
Cadd9
I watched you go
Em7
I thought you should know
Cadd9
Yeah I watched you go
Em7
I thought you should know
[Solo 1]
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9
Em7 Cadd9
And that cold rain is pourin
[Verse 5]
As they lay you in a grave
Em7
And I can barely recognize you
In your fragile state
Cadd9
No more signs of depression
From a long time ago
Em7
I throw in a pretty flower
As they slowly laid you low,
Cadd9
it was a rose
Em7
I thought you should know
Cadd9
Yeah it was a rose
Em7
I thought you should know
[Outro]
Cadd9 Em7 Cadd9

A couple of pretty flowers is what I brought to you
