Dead Flowers chords by Steve Earle

Intro:
    D  A  G    x4

Verse 1:

D             A
Well, when you're sitting there
    G
In your silk upholstered chair
      A            G
Talking to some rich folk that you know
D             A
Well, I hope you won't see me
   G
In my ragged company
         A     G
You know I could never be alone

Chorus:

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


Verse 2:

D             A
Well, when you're sitting back
    G         D
In your rose pink Cadillac
A         G      D
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
D           A
I'll be in my basement room
    G      D
With a needle and a spoon
D          A      G
And another girl to take my pain away


Chorus:

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


Chorus:

D       A           D
Take me down, little Susie, take me down
 A                      D
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
      G             D
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
G               D
Send me dead flowers by the US mail
G               D
Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
   A          G       D
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
   A          G       D
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave
