Flowers By The Side Of The Road
By Katrina Elam
Capo 2
ADA
Her mama cussed, she was out of film
DAEF#mD
As her baby came down those stairs looking right at him
ADA
His hands, they shook as he pinned on that corsage
DAEF#mD
And she almost cried cause she liked this guy from the very start
DAE
Shoulda been just another first, not the last
DAE
A beautiful moment in two lives when they looked back, now they?re
Chorus:
ADA
Flowers by the side of the road
F#mED
Yeah ,that?s all that?s left of the hopes and dreams of two seventeen year olds
EA
Some dreams live on and some, they don?t
DADADEA
All that?s left to know, all that?s left to show are flowers by the side of the 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
