[Cadd9] Em7
[Verse 1]
A [Cadd9]couple of pret,ty flowers
Is what I brought I to you
I saw you Em7through a broken window
With a different point of view
You had [Cadd9]signs of depression
From a long line of sin
And your Em7face tells a story
Bout the places you have been
I love you so, [Cadd9]
[Chorus]
I thought you should know Em7
[Verse 2]
And that [Cadd9]muddy waters flowin
As you take my hand
Past the creekEm7 down by the holler
Through your daddy's land
I could [Cadd9]buy you a diamond
But I cannot change your world
Cuz I Em7ain't got no money
You'll never be my girl no [Cadd9]no
[Chorus]
I thought you should know Em7
[Interlude]
[Cadd9] Em7 You was [Cadd9]gonna be a singer
[Verse 3]
Or be a movie star
But you Em7cant catch no breaks baby
And Hollywood is hard
Now you work[Cadd9] down at the Time Out
Off 155
And you're Em7dancing for your dollar
Just tryin' to stay alive
It hurts me so [Cadd9]
[Chorus]
I thought you should know Em7
[Verse 4]
You [Cadd9]feed your addiction
With your crystal meth
And I Em7plea for your life
As it takes you to your death
You make your [Cadd9]deal with the devil
As your looks begin to fade
I saw you Em7laughin' through the tears
As you slowly slipped away
I watched you go [Cadd9]
[Chorus]
I thought you should know Em7
Yeah I watched you go [Cadd9]
I thought you should know Em7
[Solo]
[Cadd9] Em7 [Cadd9] Em7 That [Cadd9]cold rain is pourin'
[Bridge]
As they lay you in a grave
I can Em7barely recognize you
In your fragile state
No more [Cadd9]signs of depression
From a long time ago
I throw Em7in a pretty flower
As they slowly laid you low, it was a rose [Cadd9]
[Chorus]
I thought you should know Em7
Yeah it was a rose [Cadd9]
I thought you shouldEm7 know
[Outro]
