Chords for Marty Robbins Sings 'Sweet Cora.'

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ [G] _ _ _ _ [C] _ _ _
_ _ _ _ Angels tired of being lonely
_ Came [F] and took mine, one and only
When they lay sweet Cora _ in [G] her grave
_ [Em] _ _ [G] _ [C] Everywhere I loved their [C] sorrow
There [F] can be no joy tomorrow
For all the sins [C] they lay sweet [G] Cora in [C] her grave
_ _ _ _ At the church I kept repeating
_ _ [F] She's not dead, she's only sleeping
On [C] my knees I prayed, I pleaded, [G] and I cried
_ _ _ God [C] decided he should take her
[F] All my tears could not awake her
And [C] they _
_ _ [G] led me to [C] her side
_ Today _ _ _ _ _ friends, _ we're gathered here in this [F] tiny chapel
To say goodbye for the last time
[C] To a young lady that we've all known and loved for twenty years
And [G] maybe just a little more
_ A _ [C] young lady that we've all loved dearly
[Am] But not nearly [F] as much as one young man among us who now sits weak
_ [C] A young man who would gladly give his [G] life
If he could just hear that sweet voice again
_ _ But you know friends, all of his crying and all of his tears
Can't change [F] God's plan
_ And though her passing has brought upon his young [C] life great sorrow
If he has faith, if he [G] believes that on some golden glad tomorrow
Oh, they'll meet again [C] friends, and they'll walk together
And they'll talk together, make [F] plans just like they did down here
The little time they spent [C] together here on earth
Would be but a moment compared to all eternity
They've spent together upon heaven's golden shore
_ _ [G] She _ was _ all [F] I _ ever [C] wanted
_ _ [G]
Up in heaven she [C] will _ _ _ _ _ shine _ _
_ Here on earth I'll [F] be so _ _ lonely
_ _ [G] _
Now _ _ _ _ _ is _ it [B] _ _ [G] mine _
[C] _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
