Flower Shops Chords

Use a mix of travis picking and regular strumming.
For the D/F# I like to play a regular open D and use my thumb to hit the F# on the E string.

[Verse 1]
          G
It's a beautiful day
            G
She's been cryin' all night, oh
          Am7
There's tears in her blues
       Am7
and bloodshot in mine
      D/F#
This bender's been bending
        D/F#
It's hellbound to break
    D/F#                   D7
My baby's had all she can take
 
 
[Chorus]
                            Am7    D/F#
So mister, I'll take your roses
                         G
if you cut off the the thorns
     D/F#          Em7
She can't take no more
            Am7
I'll buy violets and daisies
     D/F#
to hide all of the crazy
       G        D/F#       Em7
It's gonna take all you've got
            Am7                    D/F#                 G
Oh, it's a bad day for love but a good day for flower shops
 
 
[Verse 2]
      G
Well, I took some pills
     G
She took the dogs
         Am7
Oh, it's all gone to hell
        Am7
She's gone to her mom's
          D/F#                      D/F#
Yeah, and I took up drinkin' since she took the time
     D/F#                               D7
To tell me I took the best years of her life
 
 
[Chorus]
                           Am7    D/F#
So buddy, I'll take your roses
                         G
if you cut off the the thorns
     D/F#          Em7
She can't take no more
            Am7
I'll buy violets and daisies
     D/F#
to hide all of the crazy
       G        D/F#       Em7
It's gonna take all you've got
            Am7                    D/F#                 G
Oh, it's a tough day for love but a good day for flower shops

Roses are red, violets are blue
G           D/F#         Em7             Am7
I don't need one, I need one million to
       D/F#     G     Gsus     G
get you
 
 
[Chorus]
                            Am7    D/F#

                         G
