If I Die Young by The Band Perry

If I die young bury me in satin
Lay me (1)________ on a bed of roses
Sink me in the river at dawn
Send me away (2)________ the words of a (3)________ song
(Oh oh oh oh)
Lord (4)________ me a rainbow
I'll shine down on my mother
She'll know I'm safe with you
When she stands under my colors
(Oh) and
Life ain't always (5)________ you think it ought to be, no
Ain't even grey, but she buries her baby
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just (6)____________ time
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 (7)________ the words of a love song
The (8)__________ knife of a (9)__________ life, well
I've had just enough time
And I'll be wearing white
When I (10)________ (11)________ (12)________ kingdom
I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger
I've never known the loving of a man
But it sure (13)________ nice when he was holding my hand
There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever
Who would have (14)______________ (15)______________ could be severed by
The sharp knife of a short life, well
I've had just (16)____________ time

So put on your best boys and I'll (17)________ my pearls
What I never did is done
A (18)__________ for my thoughts
Oh no I'll sell them for a dollar
They're (19)__________ so much more after I'm a goner
And maybe then you'll hear the words I been singing
Funny (20)________ you're (21)________ how people start listening

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 (22)________ the words of a (23)________ song

The ballad of a dove
(Oh oh)
Go with peace and love
Gather up your tears, keep 'em in your pocket
Save them for a time
