[Bb] [C] [Bb]
[C] I'm [Bb] here for [C] you.
[Bb] Oh, baby.
I love [Cm] [G] [Bbm] [Cm]
[Bb] you.
I love you.
[Cm] [Bb]
I love you.
But it's working on empty.
[Cm]
[Bb] Is that the kind of way to face the burning [Cm] heat?
[Bb] I just think about my [C] baby.
[Bb] I'm so full of love I could barely eat.
There's nothing sweeter than my [Cm] baby.
[Bb] I'd never want once from the [Cm] cherry [Bb] tree
Baby [C] sweet as can be [G] she'd give me two fakes just from kissing [Gm] me
when [F] my
Time comes [Bb] around let me gently in the [Cm] cold darker
[Bb] No, grave [F] can hold my [Bb] body down.
I'll crawl to her
Baby found [C] me [Bb] I was three days on a drunken [C] sin.
[Bb] I
Walk with the [F] walls [C] around me
[Bb] Nothing in her room, but an empty [Gm] crib.
[Bb] I was burning up a [Cm] fever.
[Gm] I
[Bb] Didn't care much how [Cm] long I live
[Bb] But I swear I thought I [Cm] dreamed
[Bb] She never asked me once about the wrong I did
When [F] my
Time comes [Bb] around let me gently in the cold [Cm] darker
[G] No, grave [F] can hold my [Bb] body down When [Gm] [F] my
Time comes [Bb] around let me gently in the cold [Cm] darker
[G] No, grave [F] can hold my body [Bb] down
I'll crawl to her
I'd never fret [C] none
[Bb] About what my hands and my [C] body done
[Bb] If the Lord don't forgive [C] me
[Bb] I'd still have my baby and my baby would have me I
Was kissing on [C] my baby
[Bb] You see put a look down soft [C] and sweet
[Bb] In the Lord
I [C] was free
[Ebm] [F]
Words to [Gm] me when [F] my
Time comes [Bb] around let me gently in the cold [Cm] darker
[Gm] No, grave [F] can hold my body [Bb] down
[Gm] When [F] my time [Bb] comes around let me gently in the [Cm] cold darker
[Gm] No, [F] grave can hold my body [Bb] down
