[D]
[D]
[Bm]
[F#m]
[G] If
[A] [D] I had known [F#] your heart [F#m] was down [G] That lonely day [A] in Greenville town
[D] Then I would have [E] been [F#m] more concerned [G] But later on [A] I truly learned
[D] How it can feel [F#m] in every [D] bone [G] To really see that [A] you're all alone
But [Bm]
I'll, I'll kiss [D] your head [Bm] When death [G] finds your [D] bed and you [G] are gone
[C#] [D] And if I had seen [F#] the way it would be [G] I'd hush your cries when [A] you came to me
[D] If I could do [F#] what I did to you [G] The same to me
Then I [A] would love for you to see [Bm] That I [G] sleep with [D] remorse and [Bm] regret
Hangs [D] around my door [G] forevermore And [D] if I had known [E] the [F#] lowering tide
[G] Was lowering with [A] the way you felt inside [D] If I had known all [F#] hope was gone
[G] A broken heart and [A] a broken home [Bm] That pierced [G] my lover's [D] past
[B] And carved a [D] lonely path for her to [G] walk [Bm] [G]
So [D] if ever someone [F#m] says to you
[G] Life isn't fair, [A] get used to it [D] Then you should say, [F#m] well it might be
[G] That folks like you would [A] let it be [D] [Bm] But I'll, [G] I'll [D] kiss your head
[Bm] When death [G] becomes [D] my bed and I [G] am gone
