CAPO 2 
G   D   A   D6add9/A

         G
If I die young
           D
Bury me in satin
        A               D6add9/A
Lay me down on a bed of roses
               G          D
Sink me in the river at dawn
        A                        D6add9/A
Send me away with the words of a love song
G       D      A
  Oh oh, oh oh

               G                             D
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
                          A                         D6add9/A
She'll know I'm safe with You when she stands under my colors
   G                                 D
Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be
   A                     D6add9/A
No, ain't even grey, but she buries her baby

 G             D          A  D6add9/A
The sharp knife of a short life
     G         D          D6add9/A
Well, I've had just enough time

         G
If I die young
           D
Bury me in satin
        A               D6add9/A
Lay me down on a bed of roses
               G          D
Sink me in the river at dawn
        A                             D6add9/A
Send me away with the words of a love song

    G                D       A  D6add9/A
The sharp knife of a short life
     G         D           A
Well, I've had just enough time

                    G                D
And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom
       A                      D6add9/A
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
    G                D
I've never known the loving of a man
       A                         D6add9/A
but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
         G                            D
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
A                        D6add9/A
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

   G             D          A  D6add9/A
The sharp knife of a short life
     G         D           A
Well, I've had just enough time

G D A D6add9/A x2

  G
So put on your best boys
    D
And I'll wear my pearls
A
What I never did is done

               G
A penny for my thoughts
        D
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
  A                         D6add9/A
They're worth so much more after I'm a goner
     G                         D
And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing
A                          D6add9/A
Funny when you're dead how people start listening

G D A D6add9/A

         G
If I die young
           D
Bury me in satin
        A               D6add9/A
Lay me down on a bed of roses
               G          D
Sink me in the river at dawn
        A                        D6add9/A
Send me away with the words of a love song

G            D
 Oh oh, the ballad of a dove
A        D6add9/A
  Go in peace and love
 G
Gather up your tears
D
Keep them in your pocket
  A                               D6add9/A
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them

          G                D       A    D6add9/A
Oh oh, the sharp knife of a short life
     G         D           A
Well, I've had just enough time

   G
So put on your best boys
D
  And I'll wear my pearls
