[Intro]CmDFC[Verse 1]GGmaj7
Drove by your house and
AmD7
noticed it was overgrown
CmD
Your flowers are all dead
FC
and I thought you should know
GGmaj7
What happened to your green thumb
AmD7
that you were so proud of
CmD
The bodies were scattered
FC
and starving for love
FC
Starving for love
[Chorus]AAmaj7A7
But one, one, one was
D
on his deathbed
DmG7
He told me you left
AAmaj7A7
long ago, oh no
D
He said with his last breath
Dm
Wake up, she's not coming home
[Instrument]GGmaj7AmD7CmDFC[Verse 2]GGmaj7Am
He must be so cool and on
D7
a motorcycle
CmD
Buy you new flowers to
FC
replace what you left
GGmaj7
My new love pours herself
AmD7
out more than I like
CmD
Her name is Brandy,
FC
we'll be married tonight
FC
Married tonight
[Chorus]AAmaj7A7
When I, I, I,
D
I'm on my deathbed
DmG7
I'll remember you left
AAmaj7A7
long ago, oh no
D
I hear the nurse say
DmCF
Goodnight she's never coming home
