         G 
If I die young 
           D 
Bury me in satin 
        A               Bm4 
Lay me down on a bed of roses 
               G          D 
Sink me in the river at dawn 
        A                        Bm4 
Send me away with the words of a love song 
G       D      A 
  Oh oh, oh oh 

               G                             D 
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother 
                          A                         Bm4 
She'll know I'm safe with You when she stands under my colors 
   G                                 D 
Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be 
   A                     Bm4 
No, ain't even grey, but she buries her baby 
 G             D          A  Bm4 
The sharp knife of a short life 
     G         D          A 
Well, I've had just enough time 

         G 
If I die young 
           D 
Bury me in satin 
        A               Bm4 
Lay me down on a bed of roses 
               G          D 
Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song 

    G                D       A  Bm4 
The sharp knife of a short life 
     G         D           A  
Well, I've had just enough time 

                    G                D           
And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom 
       A                      Bm4 
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger 
    G                D           
I've never known the loving of a man  
       A                         Bm4 
but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand 
         G                            D           
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever 
A                        Bm4 
Who would have thought forever could be severed by 

   G             D          A  Bm4 
The sharp knife of a short life 
     G         D           A  
Well, I've had just enough time 

G D A Bm4 x2 

  G 
So put on your best boys 
    D 
And I'll wear my pearls 
A 
What I never did is done 

               G                 
A penny for my thoughts 
        D           
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar 
  A                         Bm4 
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner 
     G                         D           
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing 
A                          Bm4 
Funny when you're dead how people start listening 

G D A Bm4  

         G 
If I die young 
           D 
Bury me in satin 
        A               Bm4 
Lay me down on a bed of roses 
               G          D 
Sink me in the river at dawn 
        A                        Bm4 
Send me away with the words of a love song 


G            D 
 Oh oh, the ballad of a dove 
A        Bm4 
  Go in peace and love 
 G 
Gather up your tears 
D 
Keep them in your pocket 
  A                               Bm4 
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them. 

          G                D       A    Bm4 
Oh oh, the sharp knife of a short life 
     G         D           A  
Well, I've had just enough time 

   G 
So put on your best boys

And I'll wear my pearls
