Lyrics

I was told on the day we wed I was gon na love you till I’s dead.

Made you wait till our wed ding night, that’s the first and the last time I’ll wear white.

So (Am7)ties that bind (CN.C.)ev er do come loose, (Dm)tie ’em in a knot (CN.C.)like a hang man’s noose.

If ’Cause (Am7)I’ll go to heav en or er (D)I’ll go to hell be (Dm)fore on I will see (CN.C.)you with some one else.

So, put me in the (Gsus)ground,

put me six foot (Gsus)down,

and let the (CN.C.)stone say: (A5)“Here lies the girl whose on ly crutch was lov in’ one man just a lit tle too much.” If you go be fore I do, I’m gon na tell the grave dig ger that he bet ter dig two.

It (Am7)won’t be whis (CN.C.)key, it won’t be meth, (Dm)it ’ll be your name (CN.C.)on a my last noose.

If di (Am7)vorce or to death en ev er (D)do us to part, the (Dm)cor on er will call (CN.C.)it a bro ken heart.

So, put me in the (Gsus)ground,

put me six foot (Gsus)down,

It (Am)bet ter dig two,

dig two.

Ooh,

ooh.

I took your (G)name when I took those (Am)vows.

I meant ’em back (G)then and I mean ’em right now,

oh, right now.

If the (Am7)ties that bind (CN.C.)ev er do come loose, (Dm)if for ev er (CN.C.)ev er ends for you, (Am7)if that ring gets a (D)lit tle too tight, you (Dm)might as well read me my last rites.

And let the stone say: (G5)bet ter dig (D7)two.

(Am)There’ll be a stone right next to mine, we’ll be to geth er till the end of time.

Don’t you go be fore I do.

I’m gon na tell the grave dig ger that he bet ter dig (CN.C.)two.

(Am7)I told you on the (D)day we wed (Dm)I was gon na love you (CN.C.)till I’s dead.
