Flowers By The Side Of The Road
By Katrina Elam

Capo 2

Her mama [A]cussed, she was [D]out of [A]film
As her [D]baby came [A]down those [E]stairs looking right at [F#m]him[D]
His hands, they [A]shook as he pinned on [D]that cor[A]sage
And she [D]almost [A]cried cause she li[E]ked this guy from the ve[F#m]ry start [D]
[D]Shoulda been just [A]another first, [E]not the last
[D]A beautiful [A]moment in two [E]lives when they looked back, now they?re

Chorus:
[A]Flowers by the [D]side of the [A]road
Yeah ,that?s [F#m]all that?s left of the [E]hopes and dreams of [D]two seventeen year olds
[E]Some dreams live on and some, they [A]don?t
[D]All that?s [A]left to know, [D]all that?s [A]left to show are [D]flowers by the [E]side of the [A]road

Could?ve been me, could?ve been you
How many times have I said I?ve just had one or two
It?s a sobering thought, it?s a sobering sight
How like a bad, bad dream you can lose everything on a careless night
Be the one who lives, be the one who?s gone
Be the mother whose heart has to somehow go on, but she?ll leave

Chorus
