Intro:

VERSE:
E

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

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

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

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


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

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