If I Die Young - The Band Perry

Standard Tuning Capo 2

G

If I die young

D

Bury me in satin

A Bm

Lay me down on a bed of roses

G D

Sink me in the river at dawn

A Bm

Send me away with the words of a love song

G D A

Oh oh, oh oh

G Bm

Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother

A Bm

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 Bm

No, ain't even grey (?) but she buries her baby

G D A

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 Bm

Lay me down on a bed of roses

G D

Sink me in the river at dawn

A Bm

Send me away with the words of a love song

G D A

The sharp knife of a short life

G D A

Well, I've had just enough time

G D A Bm

And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom

G D A Bm

I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger

G D A

I've never known the loving of a man but it sure felt nice when he was

Bm

holding my hand

G D

There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever

A Bm

Who would have thought forever could be severed by

G D A

The sharp knife of a short life

G D A

Well, I've had just enough time

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 Bm

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 Bm

Funny when you're dead how people start listening

G

If I die young

D

Bury me in satin

A Bm

Lay me down on a bed of roses

G D

Sink me in the river at dawn

A Bm

Send me away with the words of a love song

G D

Oh oh, the ballad of a dove

A Bm

Go in peace and love

G

Gather up your tears

D

Keep em in your pocket

A Bm

Save em for a time when you're really gonna need them.

G D A

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

D A

And I'll wear my pearls
