Intro: C9  Em 

C9 
A couple of pretty flowers 

Is what I brought to you 
             Em 
I saw you through a broken window 

With a different point of view 
         C9 
You had signs of depression 

From a long line of sin 
          Em 
And your face tells a story 

'Bout the places you have been 
           C9 
I love you so 
                      Em 
I thought you should know 
     C9 
And that muddy waters flowin 

As you take my hand 
           Em 
Past the creek down by the holler 

Through your daddies land 
         C9 
I could buy you a diamond 

But I cannot change your world 
       Em 
Cuz I ain't got no money 
                           C9 
You'll never be my girl no no 
                       Em 
I thought you should know 
          C9 
You was gonna be a singer 

And a big movie star 
         Em 
But you can't catch no breaks baby 

And Hollywood is hard 
         C9 
Now you work down at the time out 

Off 155 
              Em 
And you're dancing for your dollar 

Just tryin to stay alive 
            C9 
It hurts me so 
                      Em 
I thought you should know 
     C9 
You feed your addiction 

With your crystal meth 
       Em 
And I plea for your life 

as it takes you to your death 
               C9 
You make your deal with the devil 

As your looks begin to fade 
              Em 
I saw you laughin through the tears 

As you slowly slipped away 
              C9 
I watched you go 
                       Em 
I thought you should know 
                   C9 
Yeah I watched you go 
                      Em 
I thought you should know 

Solo C9  Em 
       
      C 
That cold rain is pourin 

As they lay you in a grave 
             Em 
And I can barely recognize you 

In your fragile state 
         C 
No more signs of depression 

From a long time ago 
        Em 
I throw in a pretty flower 
                                       C 
As they slowly laid you low, it was a rose 
                       Em 
I thought you should know 
                 C 
Yeah it was a rose 
                       Em 
I thought you should know
