Mowin Down the Roses - Jamey Johnson - That Lonesome Song
Standard Tuning
Intro: A
A
Down in Mississippi
A
It's a perfect time of year
A
To break out the jumper cables
A
And try to crank this ol' John Deere
A
I can't wait to fire it up
A
And put er' into gear
A
I know I should be hurtin'
A
But I'm smiling ear to ear
A
Cuz I'm mowin down the roses
A
I'm mowin down the roses
D7
I'm mowin down the roses
A
That you planted in our yard
A
I poured out your purty perfume
A
Straight down the toilet bow
l
A
And I ripped your face straight off the wall
A
Left nothing but some holes
A
I loaded up your closets
A
Into fifteen garbage bags
A
And I smoked with your potpourri
A
On a burn pile in the back
A
Cuz I'm mowin down the roses
A
I'm mowin down the roses
D7
I'm mowin down the roses
A
That you planted in our yard
A
Down in Mississippi
A
Its getting perfectly clear
A
That anything you used to love
A
Just aint gonna grow round here
D7
I'm mowing down the roses
A
That you planted in our yard
A
I'm mowin down the roses
A
I'm mowin down the roses
A
I'm mowin down the roses
