If I die young, bury [E] me inside and lay [B] me down
All the [C#m] better roses sink [A] me in the river [E] at dawn

Uh [E]
-oh, uh [B] -oh

Lord, make [A] me a rainbow, I'll shine [E] down on my mother
She'll know I'm [B] safe with you when she stands [C#m] under my colors
[A] She's not always [E] what you think it ought to be, [B] no
Ain't even gray, [C#m] but she buries her [A] baby
The [E] sharpened knife of a [B] short life
[C#m]
[A] Well, [E] I've had just enough time
[B]

And I'll be [A] wearing white [E] when I come into your kingdom
[B] I'm as green as a [C#m] ring on my little cold finger
[A] I've never [E] known the love of a man, [B] but a true fellow knife
[C#m]
Older mouth, pal, there's [A] a boy here in town [E] says he'll love me forever
[B] Who would've thought [C#m]
forever could be [A] severed by

[B] What I never did is done
A [A] penny for my thoughts, oh no, I'll [E] sell them for a dollar
[B] There were so much more [C#m] after I'm a goner
[A] And maybe then you'll hear [E] the words I've been singing
[B] Funny when you're dead how [C#m] people start listening
[A]
