Capo 2
A D A
Her mama cussed, she was out of film
D A E F#m D
As her baby came down those stairs looking right at him
A D A
His hands, they shook as he pinned on that corsage
D A E F#m D
And she almost cried cause she liked this guy from the very start
D A E
Shoulda been just another first, not the last
D A E
A beautiful moment in two lives when they looked back, now they’re
Chorus:
A D A
Flowers by the side of the road
F#m E D
Yeah ,that’s all that’s left of the hopes and dreams of two seventeen year olds
E A
Some dreams live on and some, they don’t
D A D A D E A
All that’s left to know, all that’s left to show are flowers by the side of the road
Could’ve been me, could’ve been you
How many times have I said I’ve just had one or two
It’s a sobering thought, it’s a sobering sight
How like a bad, bad dream you can lose everything on a careless night
Be the one who lives, be the one who’s gone
Be the mother whose heart has to somehow go on, but she’ll leave
Chorus
