 LOCAL FLOWERS
 Recorded by Tom T. Hall
 Writer: Tom T. Hall
 [C] I have traveled [F] this world [C] over
 I have [G7] rambled all my [C] days
 When my journey's [F] have all [C] ended
 Place some [G7] flowers on my [C] grave. [C7]
 
 CHORUS
 Local [F] Flowers, just some [C] Daisies
 Wildwood [G7] flowers from the [C] hill [C7]
 Where I will [F] spend my eternal [C] hours
 Lay me [G7] down with Local [C] Flowers.
 
 Please don't buy those Red Carnations
 I don't need the Lilies fair
 Just go walkin' on the mountain
 Gather while it's blooming there.
 
 Rosemary means that you'll remember
 Clover sweet as the love we shared
 Mrytle says that you will miss me
 Ramblin' Roses say you care.
 
 CHORUS
 
 Let the birds sing from the tree tops
 Let the grass grow where it may
 No arrangement, no bright ribbons
 Just a simple, wild bouquet.
 
 CHORUS
