[Intro]
 Cm  D   F   C

[Verse 1]
  G            Gmaj7
Drove by your house and
         Am           D7
noticed it was overgrown
       Cm        D
Your flowers are all dead
          F                  C
 and I thought you should know
       G                Gmaj7
What happened to your green thumb
       Am               D7
 that you were so proud of
     Cm           D
The bodies were scattered
       F           C
and starving for love
  F           C
Starving for love

[Chorus]
    A    Amaj7  A7
But one, one,   one was
          D
on his deathbed
    Dm          G7
He told me you left
        A   Amaj7   A7
long ago,  oh     no
                  D
He said with his last breath
 Dm
Wake up, she's not coming home

G  Gmaj7   Am  D7
  Cm  D   F   C

[Verse 2]
 G          Gmaj7      Am
He must be so cool and on
         D7
a motorcycle
 Cm           D
Buy you new flowers to
     F             C
replace what you left
 G           Gmaj7
My new love pours herself
       Am          D7
out more than I like
 Cm           D
Her name is Brandy,
           F         C
 we'll be married tonight
 F         C
Married tonight

[Chorus]
     A   Amaj7   A7
When I,  I,      I,
            D
 I'm on my deathbed
      Dm           G7
I'll remember you left
       A   Amaj7   A7
 long ago,  oh     no
            D
I hear the nurse say
 Dm              C            F
Goodnight she's never coming home
