Mowin Down the Roses - Jamey Johnson - That Lonesome Song
Standard Tuning
Intro: C
CDown in Mississippi

CIt's a perfect time of year

C
To break out the jumper cables

C
And try to crank this ol' John Deere

CI can't wait to fire it up

CAnd put er' into gear

C
I know I should be hurtin'
CBut I'm smiling ear to ear
CCuz I'm mowin down the roses
CI'm mowin down the roses

F7
I'm mowin down the roses

That you planted in our yard C
CI poured out your purty perfume

CStraight down the toilet bow
l
A
And I ripped your face straight off the wall

CLeft nothing but some holes

CI loaded up your closets

CInto fifteen garbage bags

C
And I smoked with your potpourri

COn a burn pile in the back
CCuz I'm mowin down the roses

C
I'm mowin down the roses

F7I'm mowin down the roses

C
That you planted in our yard
CDown in Mississippi

C
Its getting perfectly clear

C
That anything you used to love

CJust aint gonna grow round here
I'm mF7owing down the roses

C
That you planted in our yard
CI'm mowin down the roses

CI'm mowin down the roses

C
I'm mowin down the roses
