If I Die Young Chords by The Band Perry

_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
_ If I die young, bury me [E] in satin
Lay me [B] down on a bed of [C#m] roses
Sink me in [A] the river at [Em] dawn
Send me [B] away with the words of [C#m] a love song
_ Oh oh, [B] _ [E] oh oh _ _ _
_ Lord, make me [A] a rainbow, I'll shine down on [E] my mother
She'll know I'm safe [B] with you when she stands under [C#] my colors
Oh, [A] and laugh ain't always what [E] you think it ought to be
[B] No, ain't even gray, but [C#m] she buries her [A] baby
The sharp [E] knife of a short [B] _ _ life
[C#m] _ _ Oh [A] well, _ I've [E] had just enough [B] time _ _
_ If I [A] die young, bury [E] me in satin

[A] The sharp [E] knife 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
Your [B] mom is green as the rain, [C#m] oh my little cold singer
[A] I've never known [E] _ another man, [B] but it sure felt nice [C#m] when he was holding my hand
[A] There's a boy here in town [E] who says he'll love me forever
[B] Who would have thought [C#m] forever could be [A] severed by
The sharp [E] knife of a [B] short _ _ _
_ [C#m] life

_ [C#m] _ _ _ [A] So put on your best [E] boys and I'll wear my pearls
_ [B]
What I never did is _ done
I pin it for my flocks, oh no, I'll [E] sell them for a dollar
There was [B] so much more after [E] I'm a goner
And [A] maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing
[B] Funny when you're dead how [C#m] people start listening _ _ _ _
