A E B C#m

If I die (A)young
Bury me in (E)satin
Lay me (B)down on a bed of (C#m)roses
Sink me in the (A)river at dawn(E)
Send me (B)away with the words of a (C#m)love song
(A)Oh oh, (E)oh oh(B)

Lord make me a (A)rainbow, I'll shine down on my(E) mother
She'll know I'm safe with (B)You when she stands under my(C#m) colors
Oh (A)and life ain't always what you think(E) it ought to be
No, (B)ain't even grey, but (C#m)she buries her baby
(A)The sharp knife(E) of a short(B) life(C#m)
Well, (A)I've had (E)just enough(B) time

If I die (A)young
Bury me in (E)satin
Lay me (B)down on a bed of (C#m)roses
Sink me in the (A)river at dawn(E)
Send me (B)away with the words of a love (C#m)song

The (A)sharp knife of a (E)short life(B) (C#m)
Well, (A)I've had (E)just enough (B)time

And I'll be wearing (A)white when I come(E) into Your kingdom
I'm as (B)green as the ring on my (C#m)little cold finger
I've(A) never known the (E)loving of a man
but it (B)sure felt nice when he was (C#m)holding my hand
There's a(A) boy here in town says he'll (E)love me forever

(B)Who would have thought forever(C#m) could be severed by

The(A) sharp knife of(E) a short (B)life(C#m)
Well, (A)I've had (E)just enough (B)time

A E B C#m x2

So(A) put on your best boys
And (E)I'll wear my pearls
(B)What I never did is done

A penny for my (A)thoughts
Oh no, (E)I'll sell them for a dollar
(B)They're worth so much more (C#m)after I'm a goner
And (A)maybe then you'll hear the (E)words I've been singing
(B)Funny when you're dead how (C#m)people start listening

A E B C#m

If I die (A)young
Bury me in (E)satin
Lay me (B)down on a bed of (C#m)roses
Sink me in the (A)river at dawn(E)
Send me (B)away with the words of a love (C#m)song

(A)Oh oh, the (E)ballad of a dove
(B)Go in (C#m)peace and love
(A)Gather up your tears
(E)Keep them in your pocket
Save(B) them for a time when you're (C#m)really gonna need them.

Oh oh, the(A) sharp knife of a(E) short (B)life(C#m)
Well, (A)I've had (E)just enough (B)time

So put on your best (A)boys
And (E)I'll wear my pearls
