E          B      A            A
She was so pretty everyone said
E            B         A
More so than pity that she was found dead
        E         B        A            A
Now the flag only flies at fifty percent

In the school yard where she once went

How the death of a cheerleader

Yellow carnations and roses galore
Were sent to the mother and placed by the door
At the spot where her daughter had taken her life
Was a sweet sixteen photo on homecoming night

Can open eyes

Nobody doubted her future was vast
Nobody noticed she grew up so fast
