There's been a lot of talk since I started doing this, especially back home in the States
about whether this is country or whether it's rock and roll.
Personally, I couldn't care less.
[N]
And in Canada and here, y'all didn't really care either, which has made it kind of neat.
It made things relatively easy.
[G] [B] So, you know, the main thing is there's two kinds of [C#] music.
There's good music and there's bad music.
[Gm]
[B] And this here is a perfectly good British hillbilly [D] song.

[D]
When you're sitting there [Em] in your silk [D] upholstered chair
Talking with some [A] rich folk that you know
[G] I [D]
hope you don't see [A] me [A] in my [G] ragged company
[D]
Cause you know I could never [A] stand to be [G] alone
[D]
[A] Take me down, I'd listen to that
Take me [D] down,
[A] I'd love you, thank you
The queen of the [D] underground
[G] Send me dead flowers, [D] everybody
[G] Send me dead flowers, bow to [D] my head
[G] Send me dead flowers, let [D] my wedding end
I won't forget to put roses on [G] your grave
I [D]
[A]
[G] [D]
will sit [A] back [G] in your rose pink [D] Cadillac
I'm making bets [A] on Kentucky dirt
[G] I'm [D]
in my basement [A] room [G] with needles [D] and spills
And I'd love a girl [A] to take my [G] family
[D]
Yeah, take me [A] down, I'd listen to that
Take [D] me down,
[A] I'd love you, thank you
The queen of the [D] underground
[G] Send me dead flowers, [D] everybody
[G] Send me dead flowers, bow to [D] my head
