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......
