Verse 1
D A
Well, when you’re sitting there in your silk upholstered chair
D
Talkin’ to some rich folk that you know
A
Well, I hope you won’t see me in my ragged company
D
Well, you know I could never be alone
Chorus
G D
Take me down little Susie, take me down
A D
I know you think you’re the queen of the underground
G D
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
A D
Send me dead flowers by the U.S. Mail
G D
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
A D
And I won’t forget to put roses on your grave
Verse 2
D A
Well, when you’re sitting back in your rose pink Cadillac
D
Making bets on Kentucky Derby Day
A
I’ll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
D
And another girl to take my pain away
Chorus
G D
Take me down little Susie, take me down
A D
I know you think you’re the queen of the underground
G D
And you can send me dead flowers every morning

Well, it’s another place to go

Another place to go
G D
Where you get your kicks
A D
Any way you want
Verse 3
D A
Well, you can bury me ‘neath the marigold window
D
In the green, green grass ‘neath the little apple tree
A
Well, I won’t need you when I’m six feet under
D
Well, I won’t need your rockin’ chair
Chorus
G D
Take me down little Susie, take me down
A D
I know you think you’re the queen of the underground
G D
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
A D
Send me dead flowers by the U.S. Mail
