Broken Window Serenade

[Intro] C9  Em

C9
A couple of pretty flowers

Is what I brought to you
             Em
I saw you through a broken window

With a different point of view
         C9
You had signs of depression

From a long line of sin
          Em
And your face tells a story

'Bout the places you have been
           C9
I love you so
                      Em
I thought you should know
     C9
And that muddy waters flowin

As you take my hand
           Em
Past the creek down by the holler

Through your daddies land
         C9
I could buy you a diamond

But I cannot change your world
       Em
Cuz I ain't got no money
                           C9
You'll never be my girl no no
                       Em
I thought you should know

          C9
You was gonna be a singer

And a big movie star
         Em
But you can't catch no breaks baby

And Hollywood is hard
         C9
Now you work down at the time out

Off 155
              Em
And you're dancing for your dollar

Just tryin to stay alive
            C9
It hurts me so
                      Em
I thought you should know
     C9
You feed your addiction

With your crystal meth
       Em
And I plea for your life

as it takes you to your death
               C9
You make your deal with the devil

As your looks begin to fade
              Em
I saw you laughin through the tears

As you slowly slipped away
              C9
I watched you go
                       Em
I thought you should know
                   C9
Yeah I watched you go
                      Em
I thought you should know

[Solo] C9  Em

      C
That cold rain is pourin

As they lay you in a grave
             Em
And I can barely recognize you

In your fragile state
         C
No more signs of depression

From a long time ago
        Em
I throw in a pretty flower
As they slowly laid you low, it was 
   C
a rose
                       Em
I thought you should know
                 C
Yeah it was a rose
                       Em
I thought you should know
