[Verse 1]
He ran [C]away from home when
he was [G]thirty [D]-two[C]
Their high school yearbook said
that he would stick to her like glue
He found his [D]whole life story on [G]the
cov[C]er of [Em]a mat[C]chbook
God knows it's [D]true what
they [Em]say about a look
[G]He kicked [D]around all day
and [Bm]he saw t[C]he signs
[G]He claimed he [D]never saw them
[Bm]turn on [C]the street lights
When the night fell [D]he ran home
[G]like the chil[D]dren do
[Em]He r[D]ead [C]the final head[D]line
and [Em]hoped it wasn't true
[A]Bury the flowers,
[D]never [G]know his[C] love
[Am]Bury [A]the[D] flowers or sho[B]w
them [E]off to your [A]friend[D]
[G]He walked the [D]long way home and
he [Bm]ain't no [D]brain[C][G]
Mudcake this [D]overcoat but she'll
[Bm]rinse out the stai[D]n[C]
Ten bucks for [D]buyin',
a [G]smile an[D]d a t[Em]witch[D]
[C]Cheap bouquet of [D]roses, [Em]tastes and a pitch
[A]Murray
[D]McFlowers, nev[G]er know [C]he [Am]left
Mur[A]ray
[D]McFlowers, sho[B]w them off[E]
to [A]your friend[D]s[G]
He's [D]got his hand behind his back
Hid[Bm]ing t[D]he punch o[C]f love
[G]Oh, breath disappear[D]ing thin air
[Bm]What could I be [C]thinking of?
Break up's [D]a make up
[G]That's the [D]way it [Em]goes[D]
[C]Things are gon[D]na work out
[A]Said [E]the girl who rose
[Em]Bur [A]ied the flow[D]ers
Nev[G]er know he [C]left
[Am]Bur [A]ied the flow[D]ers
Oh, [B]show them all
[E]To you[A]r fri[D]end, you better
[A]Buried the [D]flowers
Nev[G]er know [C]he left
[Am]Buri[A]ed the flowe[D]rs
So [B]show them [E]off to your [A]friend[D] s
[G]
