[Intro]
[G] [Am] [x8]
[Verse]
[G]Boys workin on empty [Am]
[G]Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat? [Am]
[G]I just think about my baby [Am]
[G]I'm so full of love I could barely eat
[G]There's nothing sweeter than my baby [Am]
[G]I never want once from the cherry tree [Am]
[G]Cause my baby's sweet as can be [Am]
[G]She give me toothaches just from kissin me
[Chorus]
[Em] When, [D]my, time comes around
[G] Lay me gently in the cold [Am]dark earth
[Em] No grave can [D]hold my body down
[G] I'll crawl home to her
[Verse]
[G]That's when my baby found [Am]me
[G]I was three days on a drunken sin [Am]
[G]I woke with her walls around me [Am]
[G]Nothin in her room but an empty crib [Am]
[G]And I was burnin up a fever [Am]
[G]I didn't care much how long I lived [Am]
[G]But I swear I thought I dreamed her [Am]
[G]She never asked me once about the wrong I did
[Chorus]
[Em] When, my, [D]time comes around
[G] Lay me gently in the cold [Am]dark earth
[Em] No grave can [D]hold my body down
[G] I'll crawl home to her
[Em] When, my, [D]time comes around
[G] Lay me gently in the cold [Am]dark earth
[Em] No grave can [D]hold my body down
[G] I'll crawl home to her
[Verse]
[G]My baby never fret none [Am]
[G]About what my hands and my body done [Am]
[G]If the Lord don't forgive me [Am]
[G]I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
[G]When I was kissing on my baby [Am]
[G]And she put her love down soft and sweet [Am]
[G]In the lowland plot I was free [Am]
[G]Heaven and hell were words to me
[Chorus]
[Em] When, my, [D]time comes around
[G] Lay me gently in the cold [Am]dark earth
[Em] No grave can [D]hold my body down
[G] I'll crawl home to her
[Em] When, my, [D]time comes around
[G] Lay me gently in the cold [Am]dark earth
[Em] No grave can [D]hold my body down
[G] I'll crawl home to her
[Outro]
[G] [Am] [x4]
