Oh now, when you're sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
                  G                      F  C
Talkin' to some-a rich folk that you know
                           G        F           C
Well, I hope you don't see me in my ragged company
                       G         F    C
I bet you know I could never be alone


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

C                          G            F              C
I know when you're sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
                  G           F   C
Makin' bets on Kentucky Derby Day
                       G           F            C
I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
                    G             F   C
And another girl to take my pain away


Out-Chorus:

Take me down, little Susie, take me down

And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Send me dead flowers by the mail
        F                          C       Am
You can send me dead flowers to my wedding
      C                   G             F     C
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
                          G             F      C
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
