A D Take me down, little Susie, take me down A D D7 I know you think you're the queen of the underground G D You can send me dead flowers every morning G D Send me dead flowers by the mail G D Bm Send me dead flowers to my wedding D A G D And I won't forget to put roses on your grave. Yeah, and when you're sitting back In your rose pink Cadillac Making bets on Kentucky Derby day I'll be in my basement room With a needle and a spoon And another girl to take my pain away. #--------------------------------------------------------------#
