[Chorus]

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

F     C      G
Oh oh, oh oh...

[Verse 1]

                             F
Lord, make me a rainbow
                                  C
I'll shine down on my mother
                                       G
She'll know I'm safe with you
                                           Am
When she stands under my colors
           F                                        C
Oh, and life ain't always what you think it oughta be, no
G                                    Am                F
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
                  C                      G
The sharp knife on a short life
        F     C                        G
Well, I've had just enough time

[Chorus]

Am      F
If I die young
                  C
Bury me in satin
            G                          Am
Lay me down on a bed of roses
                        F          C
Sink me in the river at dawn
              G                                      Am
Send me away with the words of a love song
                 C                       G
The sharp knife on a short life
         F    C                        G
Well, I've had just enough time

[Verse 2]

                                F
And I'll be wearing white
             C
When I come into Your kingdom
          G                                    Am
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
                   F             C
I've never known the loving of a man
          G                                        Am
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
                F
There's a boy here in town
                 C
Says he'll love me forever
G                              Am                              F
Who'd of thought forever could be severed by
                  C                      G
The sharp knife of a short life
        F     C                        G
Well I've had just enough time

[Bridge]

     F
So put on your best, boys
       C
And I'll wear my pearls
G                           C
What I never did is done
                          F
A penny for my thoughts
                  C
Oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar
G                                        Am
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
          F                                      C
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing
G                                         Am
Funny when you're dead how people start listening...

[Chorus]

Am       F
If I die young
                 C
Bury me in satin
            G                          Am
Lay me down on a bed of roses
                         F        C
Sink me in the river at dawn
               G                                    Am
Send me away with the words of a love song
C                G              Am
Oh oh, the ballad of a dove
             F               C
Go with peace and love
G                                C
Gather up your tears, keep ‘em in your pocket
G                                                Am
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need 'em oh
                 C                      G
The sharp knife of a short life,
       F     C                        G
Well I've had just enough time

      F                                C
So put on your best, boys
                          G
And I'll wear my pearls...
