If I Die Young by The Band Perry

If I die (1)__________ 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 love song
(Oh oh oh oh)
Lord make me a rainbow
I'll shine (2)________ on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you
When she stands under my colors
(Oh) and
Life ain't always what you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a (3)__________ life, well
I've had (4)________ enough time
If I die (5)__________ bury me in satin
Lay me down on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away with the (6)__________ of a love song
The (7)__________ knife of a short life, well
I've had (8)________ 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 (11)__________ the loving of a man
But it sure (12)________ nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town (13)________ he'll love me forever
Who would have (14)______________ (15)______________ could be (16)______________ by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just enough time

So put on your best boys and I'll (17)________ my pearls
What I never did is done
A penny for my thoughts
Oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're worth so (18)________ more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny when you're dead how (19)____________ start listening

If I die (20)__________ bury me in satin
Lay me (21)________ on a bed of roses
Sink me in the (22)__________ at dawn
Send me away with the words of a (23)________ song
(Oh oh)
The (24)____________ of a dove
(Oh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time
When your (25)____________ gonna need 'em (oh)
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just (26)____________ time
So put on your best boys
And I'll wear my pearls
