[Verse 1]
Bsus2 BI put one hand in the air, I'm closin' my eyes
C B#mMy whole heart's beatin' for the very first time
Bsus2 BThat boy here in town says, "Darlin' just drive"
C B#mI swear the gates of Heaven just opened up a-wide
Bsus2 BAnd Lord, I'm glad you didn't pay me no attention
C B#mWhen I sent up a prayer of a child's premonition, 'cause
[Pre-Chorus]
B B C I've had time to bloom
B#mPlantin' them roses instead and
B B C* I'm changin' my tune from when I said
[Chorus]
B BIf I die young, bury me in satin
C B#mLay me down on a bed of roses
B BSink me in the river at dawn
C B#mSend me away with the words of a love song

C B#mThrowin' my emotions in a poem 'bout a casket, but

B#mPlantin' them roses instead and
B B C I'm changin' my tune from when I said
[Chorus]
B BIf I die young, bury me in satin
C B#mLay me down on a bed of roses
B BSink me in the river at dawn
C B#mSend me away with the words of a love song
B B C The sharp knife of a short life
B#m B B CNow I know there's no such thing as enough time

[Bridge]
BI'm so glad I'm here now
CInstead of somewhere underground
B#mI think I'll always wanna stay
