INTRO: 

Cadd9     (x4)|Em7     (x4)|

[VERSE 1]

 Cadd9
A couple of pretty flowers, that's what I brought I to you
            Em7
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
         Em7                                                           Cadd9
And your face tells a story, 'bout the places you have been, I love you so
                     Em7
I thought you should know

[VERSE 2]

        Cadd9
And that muddy waters flowin', and as you take my hand
         Em7
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
      Em7                                            Cadd9
'Cause I ain't got no money, you'll never be my girl… no
                     Em7
I thought you should know

[BREAK]

Cadd9     Em7

[VERSE 3]

       Cadd9
You was gonna be a singer, and a big movie star
        Em7
But you can't catch no breaks baby, and Hollywood is hard
       Cadd9
Now you work down at the Time Out, off 155
            Em7                                                          Cadd9
And you're dancing for your dollar, just tryin' to stay alive, it hurts me so
                     Em7
I thought you should know

[VERSE 4]

      Cadd9
And you feed your addiction, with your crystal meth
      Em7
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
           Em7                                                              Cadd9
I saw you laughin' through the tears, as you slowly slipped away, I watched you go
                     Em7                   Cadd9                       Em
I thought you should know… yeah I watched you go… I thought you should know

[BREAK]

Cadd9    Em7    Cadd9    Em7

[Verse 5]

        Cadd9
And that cold rain is pourin', as they lay you in a grave
       Em7
I can barely recognize you, in your fragile state
       Cadd9
No more signs of depression, from a long time ago
       Em7                                                       Cadd9
I throw in a pretty flower, as they slowly laid you low, it was a rose
                     Em7                Cadd9                      Em7
I thought you should know… that it was a rose… I thought you should know
