[Verse]
                Cm   
Boys workin' on empty
Bb                                        Cm  
Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat
Bb                    Cm  
I just think about my baby
    Bb                                
I'm so full of love I could barely eat
                                     Cm
There's nothing sweeter than my baby  
    Bb                              Cm  
I'd never want once from the cherry tree
Bb                           Cm    
  'cause my baby's sweet as can be
Bb                                         
She give me toothaches just from kissin' me


[Chorus]
Gm         F7            Bb    
  When my   time comes around
                               Cm   
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm Gm7          F            Bb  
  No grave can hold my body down
                   Bb 
I'll crawl home to her


[Verse]
                          Cm
That's when my baby found me
Bb                            Cm 
I was three days on a drunken sin
Bb                              Cm7
  I woke with her walls around me 
Bb                                   
Nothin' in her room but an empty crib
                             Cm
And I was burnin' up a fever  
Bb                            Cm   
I didn't care much how long I lived
Bb                                 Cm 
  But I swear I thought I dreamed her
Bb                                           
She never asked me once about the wrong I did


[Chorus]
Gm         F            Bb    
  When my  time comes around
                          Cm        
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm              F            Bb  
  No grave can hold my body down
                   Bb 
I'll crawl home to her
Gm         F            Bb    
  When my  time comes around
                          Cm         Gm
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth  
             F            Bb  
No grave can hold my body down
                   Bb 
I'll crawl home to her


[Verse]
                         Cm  
My babe would never fret none
Bb                              Cm  
About what my hands and my body done
Bb                             
  If the Lord don't forgive me
    Bb                                          
I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
                         Cm  
When I was kissing on my baby
    Bb                             C    
And she put her love down soft and sweet
Bb                             C7  
  In the low lamp light I was free
C7                              
Heaven and hell were words to me


[Chorus]
Gm      F                
When my time comes around
Bb                        Cm7  Cm   
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm                F           
No grave can hold my body down
Bb                    
I'll crawl home to her
Gm      F                
When my time comes around
Bb                   Cm             
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
Gm                F           
No grave can hold my body down
     Bb               
I'll crawl home to her
