Flowers For Mama  
recorded by George Jones  [3/4 time]
written by Eddie Noack, Cindy Walker, Al Rumley 

C                    F          C
Papa brought flowers for mama today
                           D7                   G7
And all the grown children but it's not mother's day
  C                   F          C
I don't have no money not even a dime
                               G7              C
But I brought mama flowers like I have all the time
 
                         F                C
Everyday I pick flowers  from this pretty hill
                       D7        G7
A small box of Daisies and a few Daffodils 
  C                     F              C
I bring them to mama at the end of the day
                          G7            C
And say flowers for mama  here's mama's bouquet
 
                           F            C
They brighten her face and she holds me close
                                 D7               G7
She'd say they are more precious than a beautiful rose
    C                        F                C
And she wore a smile sweeter than millions of flowers
                                G7             C
A smile that I'll carry through life's darkest hours
 
Spoken:
Now mama was lying there  yes  they tell me she passed away
And she was surrounded by flowers that out shined my bouquet
I know mine aren't fancy but still all the while
They were placed in her hand and I know I saw mama smile
 
F                  C
Flowers for mama I picked them today
               D7            G7
Not very much  just a simple bouquet
C                   F            C
Mom wasn't so fancy but up there above
                              G7              C
She's the prettiest flower in God's garden of love
