Chords for The Band Perry - If I Die Young (Pop Version)

_ If I die young, bury [E] me in satin, lay me [B] down on a [C#m] bed of roses, sink me in [A] the river [E] at dawn
Send me [B] away with the [C#m] words of a love _ [A] song
Oh, [E] oh, _ oh, [B] _ oh _
_ Lord, make me [A] a rainbow, I'll shine down on [E] my mother
She'll know I'm [B] safe with you when she stands under [C#] my colors
Oh, [A] and life ain't always [E] what you think it ought to be
[B] No, ain't even gray, but [C#] she buries her [A] baby
In the sharp [E] mouth of a short [B] _ _ life
[C#] _ _ Oh, [A] well, _ I've [E] had just enough [B] _ time _
_ If I [A] die young, bury [E] me in satin, lay me [B] down on a bed [C#m] of roses, sink me [A] in the river [E] at dawn
Send [B] me away with the words [C#m] of a love _ [A] song
In the sharp [E] mouth of a [B] short _ _ [C#m] life
_ Oh, [A] well, _ I've [E] had just enough [B] _ time _
_ And I'll be [A] wearing white when [E] I come into your kingdom
[B] I'm as green as the ring [C#m] on my little gold finger
[A] I've never known [E] _ _ a man, [B] but it sure felt nice [C#] when he was holding my hand
[A] As a boy hearing tales, [E] he'll love me forever
[B] Who would have thought [C#m] forever could be [A] severed by the sharp [E] mouth of a [B] short _ life
[C#m] _ _ _ [A] Oh, well, _ _ [E] I've had just [B] enough time _
_ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
[E] _ _ _ _ _ [B] You're _
[C#m] _ _ _ _ [A] _ _ _ _
_ [E] _ _ _ _ [F#] _ _ _
_ [C#m] _ _ [E] _ _ _ the best poison, I'll wear my pearls
_ [B]
What I never did is done
A penny [A] for my thoughts, oh no, [E] I'll sell them for a dollar
[B] They're worth so much more [C#m] after I'm a goner
And [A] maybe then you'll hear the [E] words I've been singing
[B] Funny when you're dead [C#m] how people start _ listening
_ _ [A] _
_ _ _ _ [E] _ _ _ [B] _
_ _ _ _ _ If [A] I die young, bury [E] me in sand, lay [B] me down on a bed [C#m] of roses, sink me [A] in the river [E] at dawn
Send [B] me away with the words [C#m] of a love song
[A] _ I've heard [E] about it at the dawn
[B] _ _ Go [C#m] with peace and love, [A] gather up your tears [E] and keep them in your pocket
[B] Save them for a time [C#m] when you're really gonna need [A] them
Oh, the sharp [E] mouth of a short [B] life
_ _ [C#m] _ _ Oh, [A] well, I've _ [E] had just enough [B] time _ _ _ _ _
[A] So put on your best [E] boy, _ and I'll wear my pearls _
