Flowers For Mama by George Jones
Flowers For Mamaby George Jones
CFC
Papa brought flowers for mama today
D7G7
And all the grown children but it's not mother's day
CFC
I don't have no money not even a dime
G7C
But I brought mama flowers like I have all the time
FC
Everyday I pick flowersfrom this pretty hill
D7G7
A small box of Daisies and a few Daffodils
FC
I bring them to mama at the end of the day
G7C
And say flowers for mamahere's mama's bouquet
FC
They brighten her face and she holds me close
D7C
She'd say they are more precious than a beautiful rose
FC
And she wore a smile sweeter than millions of flowers
G7C
A smile that I'll carry through life’s darkest hours
Spoken:
Now mama was lying thereyesthey tell me she passed away
And she was surrounded by flowers that out shined my bouquet
I know mine aren't fancy but still all the while
They were placed in her hand and I know I saw mama smile
FC
Flowers for mama I picked them today
D7G7
Not very muchjust a simple bouquet
CFC
Mom wasn't so fancy but up there above
G7C
She's the prettiest flower in God's garden of love
