Start Jamming...
If [C] I die young, [G] bury me inside and [D] lay me down
[Em] Better roses [C] sink me in the river [G] at dawn
[D] Send me away with [Em] words of a love [C] song
[G] [D] Uh-oh
[Em]
Lord, [C] make me a rainbow, I'll [Gm] shine down on my mother
She'll [D] know I'm safe with you when she [Em] stands under my colored [C] dome
Ain't [G] always what you think it oughta [D] be, no
Ain't even [Em] gray, but she buries her [C] baby
The [G] sharpened knife of a [D] sure knife
[Em]
[C] Well, [G] I've had just [D] enough [G] time
[Dm]
[C] If I die young, bury me [G] inside and [D] lay me down
[Em] Better roses [C] sink me in the river [G] at dawn
Send me [D] away with [Em] words of a love [C] song
The [G] sharpened knife of [D] a sure knife
[Em]
[C] Well, [G] I've had just [D] enough [G] time
[D]
[C] And I'll be wearing white [G] when I come into [D] your kingdom
I'm as great as [Em] the ring on my little [C] cold finger
I'm [G] not a [D] man, but it sure felt [Em] nice when you were holding my [C] hand
There's a boy here [G] in town, says he'll love me forever
[D] Who [Em] would've thought forever could [C] be separated by
The [G] sharpened knife of [D] a sure knife
[Em]
[C] Well, [G] I've had just enough
[D] You're [Dm]
[C] [G] [D] [Em]
[C] [G] [D]
[Em] [C] best [G] buds are pearls
[D] What I never did is done
A [C] penny for my thoughts, oh no, [G] I'll sell them for [D] a dollar
There are so much [Em] more after I'm [C] a goner
Maybe then you'll hear the [G] words I've been saying
[D] Funny when you're dead [Em] how people start listening
[C] If [G] [D] [Em] [D] I die young, [A] bury me inside and lay [E] me down
[F#m] Better roses [D]
[A] [E] sink me in the river [F#m] [D]
[A] [E] [F#m] at dawn
Send me away with words of [D]
[A] [E] [F#m] [D]
[A] a [E] love song
The sharpened knife of a sure knife
[F#m] [D]
[A] [E] [F#m] [D] Well, I've had [A] just enough
