Jamey Johnson - Mowin down the roses

^ADown in Mississippi
 ^AIt's a perfect time of year 
A To break out the jumper cables 
A And try to crank this ol' John Deere
 ^AI can't wait to fire it up
 ^AAnd put er' into gear 
A I know I should be hurtin' ^ABut I'm smiling ear to ear

^ACuz I'm mowin down the roses ^AI'm mowin down the roses 
D7 I'm mowin down the roses
 That you planted in our yard ^A

^AI poured out your purty perfume
 ^AStraight down the toilet bow l
A And I ripped your face straight off the wall
 ^ALeft nothing but some holes
 ^AI loaded up your closets
 ^AInto fifteen garbage bags 
A And I smoked with your potpourri
 ^AOn a burn pile in the back

^ACuz I'm mowin down the roses 
A I'm mowin down the roses
 ^D7I'm mowin down the roses
 That you planted in our yard ^A

^ADown in Mississippi 
A Its getting perfectly clear 
A That anything you used to love
 ^AJust aint gonna grow round here I'm m^D7owing down the roses
 That you planted in our yard ^A

^AI'm mowin down the roses
 ^AI'm mowin down the roses 
A I'm mowin down the roses
