If I Die Young chords by The Band Perry |
| A E |
| If I die young, 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 |
| Send me away with the words |
| C#m A |
| Of a love song |
| E B |
| Oh-oh, oh-oh |
| A |
| Lord, make me a rainbow |
| E |
| I'll shine down on my mother |
| B |
| She'll know I'm safe with you |
| C#m |
| When she stands under my colors |
| A |
| Oh, and life ain't always |
| E |
| What you think it ought to be |
| B |
| No Ain't even gray |

| A E |
| If I die young, 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 |

| A |
| And I'll be wearing white |
| E |
| When I come into your kingdom |
| B |
| I'm as green as the ring |
| C#m |
| On my little cold finger |
| A |
| I've |
| E |
| Never known the loving of man |
| B |
| But it sure felt nice when |
| C#m |
| He was holding my hand |
| A |
| There's a boy here in town |
| E |
| Says he'll love me forever |
| B C#m |
| Who would have thought forever |
| A |
| Could be severed by |
| E B C#m |
| The sharp knife of a short life |
| A E B |
| Well, I've had just enough time |
| Bridge: |

| What I never did is done |
| A |
| A penny for my thoughts—oh no |
| E |
| I'll sell 'em for a dollar |
| B |
| They're worth so much more |
| C#m |
| After I'm a goner |
| A |
| And maybe then you'll hear |
| E |
| The words I've been singing |
| B |
| Funny when you're dead |
| C#m |
| How people start listening |
