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

Lay me down on a bed of roses
        A augmentedA    E MajorE
Sink me in the river at dawn
    BB            C# minorC#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
A augmentedA   E MajorE   BB  C# minorC#m
 Oh-oh, oh-ho
        A augmentedA
Lord make me a rainbow
           E MajorE
I'll shine down on my mother
             BB
She'll know I'm safe with you
             C# minorC#m
When she stands under my colors
    A augmentedA
Oh well, life ain't always
      E MajorE
What you'd think it ought to be, no
BB            C# minorC#m
Ain't even grey but she buries her baby
A augmentedA        E MajorE      BB   C# minorC#m
 The sharp knife of a short life
   A augmentedA     E MajorE        BB  C# minorC#m
Well, I've had just enough time

Lay me down on a bed of roses

Sink me in the river at dawn

Send me away with the words of a love song
A augmentedA        E MajorE      BB C# minorC#m
 The sharp knife of a short life
   A augmentedA    E MajorE      BB   C# minorC#m
Well, I've had just enough time
          A augmentedA
And I'll be wearing white
    E MajorE
When I come into your kingdom
    BB
I'm as green as the ring
   C# minorC#m
On my little cold finger
 A augmentedA          E MajorE
I've never known the lovin' of a man
    BB
But it sure felt nice
    C# minorC#m
When he was holding my hand
     A augmentedA
There's a boy here in town
    E MajorE
Says he'll love me forever
BB
Who would have thought
C# minorC#m
Forever could be severed by

A augmentedA  E MajorE  BB  C# minorC#m
ooh woah
  A augmentedA
So put on your best boys
  E MajorE
And I'll wear my pearls
BB
What I never did is done
        A augmentedA
A majorA penny for my thoughts
      E MajorE
Oh no, I'll sell them for a dollar
    BB
They're worth so much more
C# minorC#m
After I'm a goner
  A augmentedA
And maybe then you'll hear
  E MajorE
The words I've been singing
BB
Funny when you're dead
  C# minorC#m
How people start listening

A augmentedA  E MajorE  BB  C# minorC#m

Oh, if I die young

Sink me in the river at dawn
    BB            C# minorC#m
Send me away with the words of a love song
  A augmentedA
Oh oh (Oh oh)
  E MajorE        BB
The ballad of a dove (Oh oh)

Go with peace and love
