George Jones - Flowers for mama

^EPapa brought flowers for^A Mama^E today and all the grow children, but it's not ^BMothers Day ^EI don't heve no money, not^A even a^E dime but I brought Mama flowers like I^B have all the^E time

^EEvery day I'd pick flowers from this^A pretty^E hill a small box of daisy's and a few^B daffodils ^EI'd bring them to Mama at the^A end of the^E day and say flowers for Mama, here's^B Mama's^E bouquet

^EThey'd brighten her face and she'd^A hold me^E close she'd say they were more precious than a^B beautiful rose ^Eand she wore a smile sweeter than^A millions of^E flowers a smile that I'll carry through life'^Bs darkes^Et hour

^ENow Mama was lying there, yes they tell me^A she'd passed^E away and she was surrounded by flowers that outshined^B my bouquet ^EI know mine aren't fancy, but still^A all the^E while they were placed in her hand and I know I^B saw Mama^E smile

^EFlowers for Mama, I picked^A them^E today not very much, just a simple^B bouquet ^EMom Wasn't so fancy, but^A up there^E above she's the prettiest flower in God'^Bs garden o^Ef love
