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
