Flowers By The Side Of The Road
By Katrina Elam
Capo 2
A D A
Her mama cussed, she was out of film
D A E F#m D
As her baby came down those stairs looking right at him
A D A
His hands, they shook as he pinned on that corsage
D A E F#m D
And she almost cried cause she liked this guy from the very start
D A E
Shoulda been just another first, not the last
D A E
A beautiful moment in two lives when they looked back, now theyre
Chorus:
A D A
Flowers by the side of the road
F#m E D
Yeah ,thats all thats left of the hopes and dreams of two seventeen year olds
E A
Some dreams live on and some, they dont
D A D A D E A
All thats left to know, all thats left to show are flowers by the side of the road
Couldve been me, couldve been you
How many times have I said Ive just had one or two

How like a bad, bad dream you can lose everything on a careless night
Be the one who lives, be the one whos gone
Be the mother whose heart has to somehow go on, but shell leave
Chorus
