Dead Flowers

Tom: D
Intro: [D]  [A]  [G]  [D]


Well, [D] when you're sitting [A] there in your [G] silk upholstered [D]
chair,
[D] Talking to some [A] rich folk that you [G] know, [D]
Well I [D] hope you won't see [A] me in my [G] ragged compa[D]ny,
For [D] you know I could [A] never be a[G]lone. [D]


  Take me [A] down little Suzie, take me [D] down.
  [A] I know you think you're the queen of the under[D]ground.
  And you can [G] send me dead flowers every [D] morning,
  [G] Send me dead flowers by the [D] mail,
  [G] Send me dead flowers to my [D] wedding,
  And I [D] won't forget to put [A] roses on your [G] grave. [D]


Well, [D] when you're sitting [A] back in your [G] rose pink Cadil[D]lac,
[D] Making bets on [A] Kentucky Derby [G] day, [D]
I'll be [D] in my basement [A] room with a [G] needle and a [D] spoon,
And a[D]nother girl can [A] take my pain a[G]way. [D]
