If I Die Young by The Band Perry
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the words of a (1)________ song
(Oh oh oh oh)
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll (2)________ I'm safe (3)________ you
When she stands under my colors
(Oh) and
Life ain't always what you think it (4)__________ to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The (5)__________ knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
If I die (6)__________ bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the (7)__________ of a love song
The sharp (8)__________ of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white
When I come into your kingdom
I'm as green as the (9)________ on my little (10)________ finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would (11)________ thought forever (12)__________ be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your (13)________ boys and I'll (14)________ my pearls
What I (15)__________ did is done
A (16)__________ for my thoughts
Oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so (17)________ (18)________ (19)__________ I'm a goner
And (20)__________ then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny when you're (21)________ how people start listening
If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me (22)________ on a bed of roses
Sink me in the (23)__________ at dawn
Send me away with the words of a love song
(Oh oh)
The ballad of a dove
(Oh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, (24)________ 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time
When (25)________ (26)____________ gonna (27)________ 'em (oh)
The sharp (28)__________ of a short life, well
I've had just enough time
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
