[INTRO]
G - Am *
Am x4
*Banjo plays G then hammered A, but these are implied chords
[VERSE 1]
Am7I told you on the D/Aday we wed
Dm/AI was gonna love you Am'til I was dead
Am7Made you wait 'til our D/Awedding night
That's the Dm/Afirst and the last time AmI'll wear white
[INTERLUDE]
Am x2
[VERSE 2]
So if the Am7ties that bind ever D/Ado come loose
Dm/ATie 'em in a knot like a Amhangman's noose
Cause Am7I'll go to heaven or I'D/All go to hell
BeDm/Afore I'll see you with Amsomeone else
[PRECHORUS]
G D Am
Put me in the ground G D Am
Put me six foot down G D Am
And Amlet the stone say,
[CHORUS]
&Amquot;Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was Amloving one man just a little too much."
AmIf you go before I do
I'm gonna Amtell the gravedigger that he better dig two
[INTERLUDE]
Am x2
[VERSE 3]
Well, it Amwon't be whiskey, it D/Awon't be meth
It'll Dm/Abe your name on my Amlast breath
If diAmvorce or death ever D/Ado us part
The Dm/Acoroner will call it a Ambroken heart
[PRECHORUS]
G D Am
Put me in the ground G D Am
Put me six foot down G D Am
And Amlet the stone say,
[CHORUS]
Am"Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was Amloving one man just a little too much."
AmIf you go before I do
I'm gonna Amtell the gravedigger that he better dig two
[TAG + VIOLIN SOLO]

Dig two
FOoh,G Am

[BRIDGE]
F I took your Gname when I took those Amvows (took those vows)
F I meant 'em back Gthen and I mean 'em right Dnow,
Oh, right D7now
[VERSE 4]
If the Am7ties that bind ever D/Ado come loose
If &Dm/Aquot;forever&qAmuot; ever ends for you
If that Am7ring gets a D/Alittle too tight
You might as Dm/Awell read me my last rites
And let the stone say,
[FINAL CHORUS]
Am"Here lies the girl whose only crutch
Was Amloving one man just a little too much."
AmIf you go before I do
I'm gonna Amtell the gravedigger that he better dig, heh
AmThere'll be a stone right next to mine,
AmWe'll be together 'til the end of time
AmDon't you go before I do,
I'm gonna Amtell the gravedigger that he better dig two
[OUTRO]
Am7I told you on the D/Aday we wed
Dm/AI was gonna love you 'til I was dead
