SANTANA:
   N.C
If I die young, bury me in satin

Lay me down on a bed of roses
        A    E
Sink me in the river at dawn
    B            C#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
A   E   B  C#m
 Oh-oh, oh-ho
        A
Lord make me a rainbow
           E
I'll shine down on my mother
             B
She'll know I'm safe with you
             C#m
When she stands under my colors
    A
Oh well, life ain't always
      E
What you'd think it ought to be, no
B            C#m
Ain't even grey but she buries her baby
A        E      B   C#m
 The sharp knife of a short life
   A     E        B  C#m
Well, I've had just enough time
     A         E
If I die young, bury me in satin
    B        C#m
Lay me down on a bed of roses
        A    E
Sink me in the river at dawn
    B            C#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
A        E      B C#m
 The sharp knife of a short life
   A    E      B   C#m
Well, I've had just enough time
          A
And I'll be wearing white
    E
When I come into your kingdom
    B
I'm as green as the ring
   C#m
On my little cold finger
 A          E
I've never known the lovin' of a man
    B
But it sure felt nice
    C#m
When he was holding my hand
     A
There's a boy here in town
    E
Says he'll love me forever
B

Who would have thought
C#m
Forever could be severed by
A       E      B   C#m
The sharp knife of a short life
   A     E      B   C#m
Well, I've had just enough time
A  E   B   C#m
         Ooh yeah,
A  E  B  C#m
ooh woah
  A
So put on your best boys
  E
And I'll wear my pearls
B
What I never did is done
        A
A penny for my thoughts
      E
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
    B
They're worth so much more
C#m
After I'm a goner
  A
And maybe then you'll hear
  E
The words I've been singing
B
Funny when you're dead
  C#m
How people start listening

A  E  B  C#m

       A
Oh, if I die young
      E
Bury me in satin
    B        C#m
Lay me down on a bed of roses
        A    E
Sink me in the river at dawn
    B            C#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
  A
Oh oh (Oh oh)
  E        B
The ballad of a dove (Oh oh)
    C#m
Go with peace and love
A
Gather up your tears
E
Keep 'em in your pocket
B
Save 'em for a time
      C#m           A
When you're really gonna need them, oh
     E        B   C#m
The sharp knife of a short life
  A    E      B   C#m
Well I've had just enough time
  A           E
So put on your best boys
N.C
And I'll wear my pearls
