Verse 1:
a [Cadd9]couple of pretty flowers, that’s what I brought I to you

I thought you should k[Em]know

And that [Cadd9]muddy waters flowin’, and as you take my hand
Past the c[Em]creek down by the holler, through your daddy’s land
And I could[Cadd9]could buy you a diamond, but I cannot change your world
‘Cuz[Em]‘Cuz I ain't got no money, you’ll never be my girl…[Cadd9]girl… no
I thought you should k[Em]know
Interlude:
[Cadd9] [Em]
Verse 3:
You was [Cadd9]gonna be a singer, and a big movie star
But you c[Em]can’t catch no breaks baby, and Hollywood is hard

And you’re da[Em]dancing for your dollar, just tryin’ to stay alive, it hurts [Cadd9]me so
I thought you should k[Em]know
Verse 4:
And You[Cadd9]You feed your addiction, with your crystal meth
And I p[Em]plea for your life, as it takes you to your death
You make your [Cadd9]deal with the devil, as your looks begin to fade

I thought you should k[Em]now… there it was a[Cadd9] rose… I thought you should k[Em]now
Interlude:
