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