Chorus

If I die y^Aoung

Bury me in s^Eatin

Lay me d^Bown on a bed of r^C#moses

She'll know I'm safe with Y^Bou when she stands under my co^C#mlors

Oh and l^Aife ain't always what you th^Eink it ought to be

No, a^Bin't even grey but she bur^C#mies her baby

^AThe sharp knife^E of a short l^Bife

W^Aell, I've h^Ead just enough t^Bime ^B7

Verse 2

And I'll be wearing wh^Aite when I c^Eome into Your kingdom

I'm as gre^Ben as the ring on my l^C#mittle cold finger

I've n^Aever known the lo^Eving of a man

^BWhat I never did is done

But it s^Bure felt nice when he was

H^C#molding my hand

^AThere's a boy here in town says h^Ee'll love me forever

A penny for my ^Athoughts

Oh no, I'll s^Eell 'em for a dollar

^BThey're worth so much more af^C#mter I'm a goner

And ^Amaybe then you'll hear the wo^Erds I've been singing

^BFunny when you're dead how p^C#meople start listening
