Black Flowers Lyrics

CAPO: 4th Fret
INTRO: Am G Am
I live beside this dark coal mine
The whistle blows every day on time
When the rain pours down and the wind blows hard
Black flowers grow in my yard
And when I lost my man down that old coal shaft
I swear I heard the devil laugh
The angels laughed and they took my heart
Now black flowers grow in my yard
And the undertaker is a busy man
He got a clean blue shirt, got soft pink hands
Got a big driveway and a brand new car
Black flowers grow in my yard
And when the baby cries, I sing hush little one
But I swear that I'm gonna come undone
'Cause when the rain pours down and the wind blows hard
Black flowers grow in my yard
Black flowers grow in my yard
Black flowers grow in my yard
