If I die young
           E
Bury me in satin
        B               C#m
Lay me down on a bed of roses
               A          E
Sink me in the river at dawn
        B                        C#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
A       E      B
  Oh oh, oh oh

A                             E
Lord make me a rainbow, I'll shine down on my mother
                          B                         C#m
She'll know I'm safe with You when she stands under my colors
   A                                 E
Oh and life ain't always what you think it ought to be
   B                     C#m
No, ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
 A             E          B  C#m
The sharp knife of a short life
     A         E          B

Well, I've had just enough time

A                E
And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom
       B                      C#m
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
    A                E
I've never known the loving of a man
       B                         C#m
but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
         A                            E
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever

B                        C#m
Who would have thought forever could be severed by

A             E          B  C#m

So put on your best boys
    E
And I'll wear my pearls
B
What I never did is done

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

A E B C#m

A            E
 Oh oh, the ballad of a dove
B        C#m
  Go in peace and love
 A
Gather up your tears
E
Keep them in your pocket
  B                               C#m
Save them for a time when you're really gonna need them.

A                E       B    C#m
Oh oh, the sharp knife of a short life
     A         E           B
Well, I've had just enough time

G
Don't wish it away
      Bm      F                 C    F C F C 
Don't look at it?s like it's forever
C               G
Between you and me
                 Bm
I could honestly say
     F                   C     F C F C 
That things can only get better

C          G
And while I'm away,
B7                    Em
dust out the demons inside
                C
And it won't be long
       Em         G
Before you and me run
                    Am
To the place in our hearts
F        G   C G Am G
Where we hide

C         
And I guess that's why
     G           F
they call it the blues
           C
Time on my hands,
         G               F     
could be time spent with you
C             G
Laughing like children,
            Am
living like lovers,
C            F                  D
rolling like thunder, under the covers
      F                
And I guess that's why
     G           C    Em F
they call it the blues

G
Just stare into space
Em         F            C    F C F C 
Picture my face in your hands
C             G
Live for each second
            Bm
Without hesitation
    F                     C  F C F C 
And never forget I'm your man

C          G
Wait on me girl
B7         Em          G
Cry in the night if it helps
    G7        C                  G
But more than ever I simply love you
            Am   F      G  C G Am G
More than I love life itself

F                
And I guess that's why
     G           C    
they call it the blues  2x

Heart beats fast
           G
Colors and promises
          Em
How to be brave
          D             C
How can I love when I'm afraid

To fall
                 G
But watching you stand alone
          Em
All of my doubt
         D         C
Suddenly goes away somehow
         Em    D
One step closer
G
I have died everyday

waiting for you
Em
Darlin' don't be afraid
