G D And I'll be wearing white when I come into Your kingdom A D6add9/A I'm as green as the ring on my little cold finger G D I've never known the loving of a man A D6add9/A but it sure felt nice when he was holding my hand G D There's a boy here in town says he'll love me forever A D6add9/A Who would have thought forever could be severed by

G So put on your best, boys D And I'll wear my pearls A What I never did is done G A penny for my thoughts D Oh no, I'll sell 'em for a dollar A D6add9/A They're worth so much more after I'm a goner G D And maybe then you'll hear the words I've been singing A D6add9/A Funny when you're dead how people start listening
