Introduction: Em
C9
A couple of pretty flowers, that&rsquo s what I brought I 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 C9
And your face tells a story, &lsquo bout the places you have been, I love you so
Em
I thought you should know
C9
And that muddy waters flowin&rsquo , and as you take my hand
Em
Past the creek down by the holler, through your daddy&rsquo s land
C9
And I could buy you a diamond, but I cannot change your world
Em C9
&lsquo Cuz I ain't got no money, you&rsquo ll never be my girl&hellip no
Em
I thought you should know
C9
You was gonna be a singer, and a big movie star
Em
But you can&rsquo t catch no breaks baby, and Hollywood is hard
C9
Now you work down at the Time Out, off of 155
Em C9
And you&rsquo re dancing for your dollar, just tryin&rsquo to stay alive, it hurts me so
Em
I thought you should know
C9
And 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 C9
I saw you laughin&rsquo through the tears, as you slowly slipped away, I watched you go
Em C9 Em
I thought you should know&hellip yeah I watched you go&hellip I thought you should know
C9
And that cold rain is pourin&rsquo , as they lay you in a grave
Em
I can barely recognize you, in your fragile state
C9
No more signs of depression, from a long time ago
Em C9
I throw in a pretty flower, as they slowly laid you low, it was a rose
Em C9 Em
I thought you should know&hellip there it was a rose&hellip I thought you should know
C9
A couple of pretty flowers, that&rsquo s what I brought to you
