If I Die Young chords

Capo on the: 2nd Fret

If I die you[G]ng
Bury me in satin [D]

Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river, [G]
at da[D]wn
Send me away with [A]the words
of a love song [D]

Penny for my thoughts [G]
No, I'll sell them for a dollar [D]
They're worth s[A]o much more
after I'm goner [D]
And maybe then you'll hear the words [G]
[D]I've been singing
Funny when you're dead how people [A]
start lis[D]tening
It's the sharp knife, [G]
of a short life [D]
Well, I've had jus[G]t
enough time. [D] [A]

If I die youn[G]g
Bury me in satin [D]
Lay me down o[A]n a
bed of roses [D]
Sink me in the river, [G]
at da[D]wn
Send me away with [A]the words
of a love song [D]

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

Oh, the sharp knife, [G]
of a short life [D]
Well, I've had ju[G]st
enough time [D] [A]

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

End: [Strum down, open; Strum up, A; Strum down, open]
