Here's a great and easy strum-along song by the Stones. It's essentially
three chords throughout the whole song and it has a country feel to it.

[Intro]
Dsus2 D  A  G  D

[Verse 1]
D                         A              G                 D   
Well, when you're sittin' there, in your silk upholstered chair
D               A                  G   D
Talkin' to some rich folk that you know
D                          A          G          D 
Well, I hope you won't see me, in my ragged company
D                       A        G   D
cause you know I could never be alone

[Pre-chorus]
         A                          D  
Take me down little Suzie, take me down
  A                                           D     
I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]
        G                              D  Dsus4 D Dsus2
You can send me dead flowers every morning
G                           D Dsus4 D Dsus2
Send me dead flowers by the mail
G                          D Dsus4DDsus2
Send me dead flowers at my wedding
      D                    A            G    D
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

[Verse 2]
D                         A                 G        D   
Well, when you're sittin' back in your rose pink Cadillac
D              A              G  D
Makin' bets on Kentucky Derby day
D                            A           G            D    
Well, I'll be in my basement room with a needle and a spoon
    D                A            G   D
And another girl can take my pain away

[Pre-chorus]
        A                           D  
Take me down little Suzie, take me down
  A                                           D     
I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]
            G                              D  Dsus4 D Dsus2
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
G                           D  Dsus4 D Dsus2
Send me dead flowers by the mail
G                           D  Dsus4 D Dsus2
Send me dead flowers to my wedding
      D                   A             G    D
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave

[Pre-chorus]
        A                           D  
Take me down little Suzie, take me down
  A                                            D    
I know you think you're the queen of the underground

[Chorus]
             G                          D     
And you can send me dead flowers every morning
G                                D   
Send me dead flowers by the U.S. mail
G                               D     
Say it with dead flowers at my wedding
      D                   A              G   
And I won't forget to put roses on your grave
      D                   A              G   D
No, I won't forget to put roses on your grave
