Tom T. Hall - Second handed flowers

^CI was working in Miami ^Ffor a day or ^C2 I decided I'd look up a girl that I once ^Gknew I ^Cbought some flowers and went to see the ^Fgirl I used to ^Cknow the ^Flady at her ^Cdoor said she had ^Gmarried long ^Cago. Times will change and towns will change and ^Fthere I was a^Clone suddenly I wondered would Suzi be at ^Ghome so ^Cwith the flowers in my hand I ^Fwalked toward her ^Cgate some^Fone touched me ^Con the arm and ^Gsaid you'll have to ^Cwait Then I noticed there were people ^Fstanding in a ^Cline some of them were holdin pretty flowers just like ^Gmine ^Cthey explained that Suzi had been ^Fin an awful ^Ccrash ^Fdoctors said that ^Cshe had just a ^Glittle while to ^Clast. When I walked into her room I ^Ffelt a sense of ^Cshame but I heard Suzi whisper I'm awfully glad you ^Gcame ^Cshe had been the girl I had ^Foften gone to ^Csee whn ^Fsomeone that I ^Ccared for had ^Gbeen untrue to ^Cme. I handed her the flowers and she ^Fgently kissed my ^Chand she ^Fsaid don't be ^Cembarrassed you know I under^Gstand ^CI said goodbye and as I bent to ^Fkiss her fevered^C brow I^F heard her whisper^C thank you for the ^Gsecond handed ^Cflowers.
