Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[Am]

[Verse 1]
Reverend John [Am]was an
upstanding preacher man
Sang tenor in a gospel band
They were driving home
on a Saturday night
The last thing he saw
was a drunk's headlights
Now his [Dm]wife ties [Am]roses
[Dm]to a wooden cr[Am]oss
At [C]the place by the highway
where her man [E]was lost
Look, [Am]look, look at those flowers
Look, look, remember them [Dm]well
[Am]Look, look, look at those flowers
Every rose petal's got a tale [D]to [Am]tell
Jody Brown was a hard
working family man
Made a good living with his
own two hands
Started in drinking when
they closed the mill
Then a little left of center
coming over the hill
Now his [D]wife ties roses on a [Am]wooden cross
[E]At the [C]place by the highway
where her [Am]man was [E]lost
Look, [Am]look, look at those flowers
Look, look, remem[D]ber them well
[Am]So look, look, look at[C] t[Am]hose flowers
Every rose petal's got a [D]tale to [C]tell
[G]So tired, [D]so many miles to [Am]go
I'm just [C]try[Am]ing [G]to get hom[D]e[Am]
[C]So [G]tired, [D]so dark out [Am]on this road
I'm just [C]trying [G]to get home
[Am][D][Am][Dm][Am]
[E]
[Am]Look, look, look at [E]those [Am]flowers
Look, look, remember [D]them well
[Am]Look, look, look at those flowers
Every rose petal's got a [Dm]tale [Am]to tell
[C]So [G]tired, so many [D]miles to go
[Am]I'm just tryin[C]g [G]to get home[D][Am]
[C]So [G]tired, so dark out [D]on this road
[Am]I'm just t[C]rying, t[G]rying to get hom[Am]e
So [C]tired, [G]so [Am]many miles to go
[C]Trying, [G]trying hard to [Am]get home
[C]So tir[G]ed, so [Am]dark out on this [C]road
[G]Trying to get [Am]home
Oo[C]h, [G]try to get home
