[A] _ _ _ [D] Papa bought flowers [G] for Mama [D] today _ _ _ _
And all the grown children, [E] but it's not [A] Mother's Day _
_ _ [D] I don't have no money, [G] not even [D] a dime
But _ I bought Mama flowers [A] like I have [D] all the time _
_ _ Every day I pick flowers [G] from this pretty [D] hill
A _ _ small bunch of daisies [E] and a few [A] daffodils _
_ _ [D] I bring them to [G] the end of [D] the day _ _
And say flowers for Mama, [A] here's _ [D] Mama's bouquet
Every day _ they _ brighten her face, [G] she holds [E]
[D] me close _ _
She'd say they were more precious [E] than a beautiful [A] rose _
_ _ [D] And she wore a smile sweeter [G] than beautiful [D] flowers _ _ _
A smile that I'll carry [A] through life's darkest [D] hours _
_ _ Now Mama was just lying there, _ [G] guess they told me she'd passed away
And _ she was surrounded by flowers _ _ [E] that I've shined my bouquet
[A] Well _
[Em] _ _ [D] I know mine are as thankful as [G] still all the [D] while _ _ _ _
They were proved their worth, and I know it
[A] _ _ _ [D] _ _ _
_ _ _ [G] _ Flowers for Mama, I picked them [D] today _ _ _ _
Not very much, [E] just a simple [A] bouquet _
_ _ [D] Mama, she's so fancy, [G] but up there [D] _ above _ _
She's the prettiest flower [A] in God's garden [D] of love _
