The Band Perry
Capo 2
(Intro)
If I die [G]young
Bury me in [D]satin
Lay me [A]down on a bed of [Bm]roses
Sink me in the [G]river at [D]dawn
Send me [A]away with the words of a [Bm]love song
[G]...Oh oh, [D] oh oh [A]
(Verse)
Lord make me a [G]rainbow, I'll shine down on my [D] mother
She'll know I'm safe with [A]
You when she stands under [Bm]my colors
Oh [G]and life ain't always what you [D]think it ought to be
No, [A] ain't even grey, but [Bm]she buries her baby
(Bridge)
[G]The sharp knife [D] of a short [A] life
Well, [G] I've had [D]just enough [A]time
(Chorus)
If I die [G]young
Bury me in [D]satin
Lay me [A]down on a bed of [Bm]roses
Sink me in the [G]river at [D]dawn
Send me [A]away with the words of a love [Bm]song
(Bridge)
The [G]sharp knife of a [D]short [A]life
Well, [G] I've had [D]just enough [A]time
(Verse)
And I'll be wearing [G]white
when I come [D] into Your kingdom
I'm as [A]green as the ring on my [Bm]little cold finger
I've [G]never known the [D]loving of a man
but it [A]sure felt nice when he was [Bm]holding my hand
There's a [G]boy here in town says he'll [D]love me forever
[A]Who would have thought [Bm]forever could be severed by
(Bridge)
The [G] sharp knife [D]of a short [A]life
Well, [G] I've had [D]just enough [A]time
(Instrumental)
[G] [D] [A] [Bm] x2
(Interlude)
So [G] put on your best boys
And [D]I'll wear my pearls
[A]What I never did is done
A penny for my [G]thoughts
Oh no, [D]I'll sell them for a dollar
[A]They're worth so much more [Bm]after I'm a goner
And [G]maybe then you'll hear the [D]words I've been singing
[A]Funny when you're dead how [Bm]people start listening
(Instrumental)
[G] [D] [A] [Bm]
(Chorus)
If I die [G]young
Bury me in [D]satin
Lay me [A]down on a bed of [Bm]roses
Sink me in the [G]river at [D]dawn
Send me [A]away with the words of a [Bm]love song
(Outro)
[G]..Oh oh, the [D]ballad of a dove
[A]...Go in [Bm]peace and love
[G]Gather up your tears
[D]Keep them in your pocket
[A]Save them for a time when you're [Bm]really gonna need them
Oh oh, the [G] sharp knife of a [D]short [A]life
Well, [G]..I've had [D]just enough [A]time
So [G]put on your best boys
And [D]I'll wear my [A]pearls
