If I die young F
Bury me in satin C
Lay me down onG a bed of roses A7
Sink me in the river at dawn F C
Send me away with tGhe words of a love song F
FOh oh, oh Coh G
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine Fdown on my mother C
She'll know I'm safe with You when she stands uGnder my colors A7
FOh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be C
She ainG't even grey but she buries her baby F
The shaFrp knife of a shoCrt life G
Well, FI've had jCust enough time G
(Chords are the same for chorus and second verse)
If I die young
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have thought forever could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
FSo put on your best boys
CAnd I'll wear my pearls G
GWhat I never did is done
(Chords same as 1st & 2nd verse)
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing
Funny when you're dead how people start listening
(chords same as Chorus)
If I die young
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
INSTRUMENTAL-- F, C, G, A7... F, C, G, F
(Same as before)
Oh oh, the sharp knife of a short life
Well, I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
