Tuning: Standard
Intro: Cadd9, Em (2x)
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 Cadd9
And your face tells a story, ‘bout the places you have been, I love you so
Em
I thought you should know
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 Cadd9
‘Cuz I ain't got no money, you’ll never be my girl… no
Em
I thought you should know
Break: Cadd9, Em
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 Cadd9
And you’re dancing for your dollar, just tryin’ to stay alive, it hurts me so
Em
I thought you should know
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
Cadd9
I saw you laughin’ through the tears, as you slowly slipped away, I watched you go
Em Cadd9 Em
I thought you should know… yeah I watched you go… I thought you should know
Break: Cadd9, Em, Cadd9, Em
Cadd9
And that cold rain is pourin’, as they lower 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 Cadd9
I throw in a pretty flower, as they slowly laid you low, it was a rose
Em Cadd9 Em
I thought you should know… there it was a rose… I thought you should know
Break: Cadd9, Em, Cadd9, Em
Cadd9
A couple of pretty flowers, that’s what I brought to you
Em Cadd9... Em...
I saw you through a broken window, with a different point of view…
