La#5 Do5
Boys workin' on empty
La#5 Do5
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?
La#5 Do5
I just think about my baby
La#5
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
Do5
There's nothing sweeter than my baby
La#5 Do5
I'd never want once from the cherry tree
La#5 Do5
Cause my baby's sweet as can be
La#5
She'd give me toothaches just from kissin' me
Solm Fa La#
When my time comes around
Dom
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Solm Fa
No grave can hold my body down
La#
I'll crawl home to her
La#5 Do5
Boys, when my baby found me
La#5 Do5
I was three days on a drunken sin
La#5 Do5
I woke with her walls around me
La#5
Nothin' in her room but an empty crib
Do5
And I was burnin' up a fever
La#5 Do5
I didn't care much how long I lived
La#5 Do5
But I swear I thought I dreamed her
La#5
She never asked me once about the wrong I did
Solm Fa La#
When my time comes around
Dom
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Solm Fa
No grave can hold my body down
La#
I'll crawl home to her
Solm Fa La#
When my time comes around
Dom
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Solm Fa
No grave can hold my body down
La#
I'll crawl home to her
La#5 Do5
My babe would never fret none
La#5 Do5
About what my hands and my body done
La#5 Do5
If the Lord don't forgive me
La#5
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
Do5
When I was kissin' on my baby
La#5 Do5
And she put her love down soft and sweet
La#5 Do5
In the low lamp light I was free
La#5
Heaven and hell were words to me
Solm Fa La#
When my time comes around
Dom
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Solm Fa
No grave can hold my body down
La#
I'll crawl home to her
Solm Fa La#
When my time comes around
Dom
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Solm Fa
No grave can hold my body down
La#
I'll crawl home to her
