Intro:

VERSE:
E MajorE
Last night I had a dream, my dear;
 A augmentedA         E MajorE
I dreamed I saw you again.
                   F#F#      BB
Your smile was just as lovely as the day it all began.
 E MajorE                 A augmentedA        E MajorE
I saw your face I kissed your lips I felt your warm embrace,
    A augmentedA    E MajorE    BB       A augmentedA
then I woke up alone and you were still gone,
    E MajorE     BB      E MajorE
and the loneliness lied in your place.

CHORUS:
  A augmentedA          E MajorE
If death is worse than cryin'
           BB
because God took you away,
   A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB     A augmentedA
then why do I long each day to be gone?
     E MajorE     BB       E MajorE
Life without you is worse than the grave.

VERSE:
E MajorE
If I had my way, I'd leave here today;
  A augmentedA              E MajorE
I'd leave this old world here below;

I'd meet you up there in the land bright and fair,
   F#F#         BB
Dear Lord, I'm ready to go!
     E MajorE
But I'll have to wait for you, my dear,
    A augmentedA            E MajorE
till my number is called to come home.
 A augmentedA       E MajorE    BB     A augmentedA
Until that glad day when I hear you say,
  E MajorE       BB   E MajorE
"My Love you're no longer alone."

CHORUS:
  A augmentedA          E MajorE
If death is worse than cryin'
           BB
because God took you away,
   A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB     A augmentedA
then why do I long each day to be gone?
     E MajorE     BB       E MajorE
Life without you is worse than the grave.

  A augmentedA          E MajorE
If death is worse than cryin'
           BB
because God took you away,
   A augmentedA    E MajorE     BB     A augmentedA
then why do I long each day to be gone?
     E MajorE     BB       E MajorE
Life without you is worse than the grave.
