IF I DIE
????????????????????????????
writtten by Peter Hoorelbeke
Intro:
Em7 Ebm7 F7 E
Verse:
Em7 Ebm7
Rain is falling on my head,
F7 E
pretty soon I might be dead.
Em7 Ebm7
The end is here, Lord, it's plain to see
F7 E
I guess my country's made a fool of me.
Chorus:
E [Esus] A
If I die, please make sure,
G A E
Someone will bring me home.
E [Esus] A
If I die, tomorrow,
G A E
Someone will be all alone.
Verse:
Family's children standin' by,
Mother finds it hard not to cry.
A look of sadness on their face,
Tryin' hard not to show a trace.
Chorus
One last question before I go,
One last answer I must know.
Tomorrow morning I'll be alone,
Can you tell me why I can't be home?
Chorus
Chorus
I don't wanna die, but if I die...
Chorus
