George Jones – Flowers For Mama (Guitar)

E                       A    E
Papa brought flowers for Mama today

                                        B
and all the grow children, but it's not Mothers Day

E                         A      E
I don't heve no money, not even a dime 

                                 B            E
but I brought Mama flowers like I have all the time

E                                   A      E
Every day I'd pick flowers from this pretty hill

                                B
a small box of daisy's and a few daffodils

E                            A          E
I'd bring them to Mama at the end of the day

                                B      E
and say flowers for Mama, here's Mama's bouquet

E                                 A       E
They'd brighten her face and she'd hold me close

                                        B
she'd say they were more precious than a beautiful rose

E                                A           E
and she wore a smile sweeter than millions of flowers

                                     B       E
a smile that I'll carry through life's darkest hour

E                                         A            E
Now Mama was lying there, yes they tell me she'd passed away

                                                B
and she was surrounded by flowers that outshined my bouquet

E                                  A       E
I know mine aren't fancy, but still all the while

                                         B        E
they were placed in her hand and I know I saw Mama smile

E                         A    E
Flowers for Mama, I picked them today

                            B
not very much, just a simple bouquet 

E                       A        E
Mom Wasn't so fancy, but up there above 

                                  B         E
she's the prettiest flower in God's garden of love
