Flowers - Brad Paisley

Intro:
G G D D G G G

Verse:
G                     C
Long-stemmed things of beauty
   D           G
Created by the Good Lord
         C                          G
And cut down, in the prime of their lives
                     C
Boxed up, wrapped in paper
    D               G
Delivered to your front door
        C
Just to wind up in
                      D
Your garbage can, outside

Chorus:
      G             C             D  (D D# C)
  Tell me, how many flowers have to die
     C                                 D
  Before you give this love another try
     G                    C
  I've asked you to forgive me
    D                 Em
  At least nine dozen times
           C             D          G
  Tell me, how many flowers have to die

Verse:
    G             C
I'm crazy and I'm desperate
  D               G
I had you then I blew it
         C                              G
And right now, I've got nothing left to lose
                     C
I've got a VISA in my wallet
        D                 G
And I'm not afraid to use it
    C
How long the needless violence lasts
D
Is really up to you

Chorus:
        G             C             D  (D D# C)
  Tell me, how many flowers have to die
     C                                 D
  Before you give this love another try
     G                    C
  I've asked you to forgive me
    D                Em
  At least ten dozen times
           C             D          G
  Tell me, how many flowers have to die

G G D D G G G

 N.C.                C
Stop the senseless killing
        D                   Em
Can't you  hear those roses cry
         C             D                  G
Baby, tell me how many flowers have to die
        C          D             G
Tell me how many flowers have to die......
