Hope Henderson - If I Die Young Chords
This is more for coffee house performances. It's shorter, a tab less morbid and so
on. Sorry for the choppyness of this. It doesn't feel like working with me, you
can get the jist. Hope You enjoy.
Capo on the: 2nd Fret
G
If I die young
D
Bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
G
Sink me in the river,
D
at dawn
A
Send me away with the words
D
of a love song

G
Penny for my thoughts
D
No, I'll sell them for a dollar
A
They're worth so much more
D
after I'm goner
G
And maybe then you'll hear the words
D
I've been singing
A
Funny when you're dead how people
D
start listening
G
It's the sharp knife,
D
of a short life
G
Well, I've had just
D A
enough time.
G
If I die young
D
Bury me in satin
A
Lay me down on a
D
bed of roses
G
Sink me in the river,
D
at dawn
A
Send me away with the words
D
of a love song
G
Oh oh,
D A
the ballad of a dove
A
Go in peace
D
and love
G
Gather up your tears
D
Keep 'em in your pocket
A D
Save 'em for a time when you're really gonna need them
G
Oh, the sharp knife,
D
of a short life
G
Well, I've had just
D A
enough time
G
So put on your best boys
D
And I'll wear my pearls
