Cadd9, Em (2x)


[Verse 1]

  Cadd9
A couple of pretty flowers, that’s what I brought I to 
you
             Em
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
          Em                                           
And your face tells a story, ‘bout the places you have 
                Cadd9
been, I love you so
                      Em
I thought you should know

[Verse 2]

         Cadd9
And that muddy waters flowin’, and as you take my hand
          Em
Past the creek down by the holler, through your daddy’s
 land
           Cadd9
And I could buy you a diamond, but I cannot change your
 world
    Em                                             
‘Cuz I ain't got no money, you’ll never be my girl…
Cadd9
 no
                      Em
I thought you should know

[Break]

Cadd9, Em


[Verse 3]

        Cadd9
You was gonna be a singer, and a big movie star
         Em
But you can’t catch no breaks baby, and Hollywood is 
hard
        Cadd9
Now you work down at the Time Out, off of 155
             Em                                        
And you’re dancing for your dollar, just tryin’ to stay
                 Cadd9
 alive, it hurts me so
                      Em
I thought you should know

[Verse 4]

       Cadd9
And You feed your addiction, with your crystal meth
       Em
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
            Em                                      
I saw you laughin’ through the tears, as you slowly 
                         Cadd9
slipped away, I watched you go
                      Em                    Cadd9   
I thought you should know… yeah I watched you go… I 
                    Em
thought you should know

[Break]

Cadd9, Em, Cadd9, Em


[Verse 5]

         Cadd9
And that cold rain is pourin’, as they lay you in a 
grave
        Em
I can barely recognize you, in your fragile state
        Cadd9
No more signs of depression, from a long time ago
        Em                                          
I throw in a pretty flower, as they slowly laid you 
             Cadd9
low, it was a rose
                      Em                 Cadd9    
I thought you should know… there it was a rose… I 
                    Em
thought you should know

[Break]

Cadd9, Em, Cadd9, Em


[Outro]

  Cadd9
A couple of pretty flowers, that’s what I brought to 
you
            Em                                      
I saw you through a broken window, with a different 
         Cadd9... Em...
point of view…
