[Intro]
C# G# F# C#
[Verse]
C# G#
When you are sitting there,
F# C#
in your self-upholstered chair
C# G# F# C#
Talking to some rich folk that you know
C# G# F# C#
Well I hope you won't see me in my ragged company
C# G# F# C#
you know I could never be alone
[Chorus]
G# G# C# C#
Take me down little Susie, take me down
G# G# C# C#
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
F# F# C# C#
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
F# F# C# C#
Send me dead flowers by the mail
F# F# C#
Send me dead flowers at my wedding
C# G# F# C#
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
[Verse]
C# G# F# C#
When you're sitting back in your rose pink cadillac
C# G# F# C#
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
C# G#
Well I'll be in my basement room
F# C#
with a needle and a spoon
C# G# F# C#
And another heart to take my pain away
[Chorus]
G# G# C# C#
Take me down little Susie, take me down
G# G# C# C#
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
F# F# C# C#
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
F# F# C# C#
Send me dead flowers by the mail
F# F# C#
Send me dead flowers at my wedding
C# G# F# C#
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
[Solo]
C# G# F# C# 4x
[Chorus]
G# G# C# C#
Take me down little Susie, take me down
G# G# C# C#
I know you think you're the queen of the underground
F# F# C# C#
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
F# F# C# C#
Send me dead flowers by the U. S. mail,
F# F# C# C#
Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
C# G# F# C#
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
C# G#~ F#~ C#~
No I won't forget to put roses on your grave.
