"Flowers"
By:Hurt
Tabbed by:Dan


Intro:
C G Am x2

C     G             Am
  The children will sing,
C    G          Am  
  A song in the streets.
   Dm                   G
It sounds like the 23rd Psalm ,
       Dm          G
To the music of 21 guns.
C     G           Am
  The flowers are dead,
C      G           Am
  In a vase by the bed.
Dm                            G
The place where the old woman died,
Dm                                G  
Is the same place she started her life.
Dm                          G
And papers will all say her name,
Dm                           G
And probably print the wrong date.

(The rest is essentially the same chords throughout the whole song.)

The day that you die,

Cause we're all gonna die.

Cute little puppies and bunnies and birds,

People who sing when they don't know the words,

You will die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

It's just part of life.

All men, women, children, hermaphrodites too,

Animals, aliens and certainly you,

You will die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

'Cause everyone dies.

And all that was ever, and all that will be,

Single celled creatures and anything green,

You will die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

Start saying goodbye.

From the moment you start up this miserable life,

You should know that it's only a matter of time,

'Till you die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

Start saying goodbye.

And the morons at labels who think they know tunes,

The army of lawyers that threaten to sue,

The hookers that blow them when I just want food,

And the asshats that download and never buy tunes,

You should die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

I can't wait 'till you die.

All protestants, catholics, and orthodox jews,

You dumb scientologists,

And guys who bend spoons,

And buddhists, well sort of,

And athiests too,

All you wackjob believers,

Nobody's immune.

You will die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

Kiss your ass goodbye!

And sarcastic song writers, guys with tattoos, 

Drummers, and bassists, and engineers too,

And every last person that sang in this room ,

They will die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

We're all gonna die.

'Cause we're all gonna die.

We're all gonna die.

Outro:
         Dm                 G                           C
And it's just a reminder of something that's frequently known.
