G                             C
Oh Lord why did you take her from me
    G                  D7
Why didn't you take me away
   G                         C
So I could have been there beside her
    G                  D7              G
All alone beneath that lonely mound of clay

[Verse 2]
G                                C
I'll stay here beside you little darling
    G                            D7
And I promise that I'll never go away
  G                        C
Until my life down here is over
     G            D7                   G
I'll be with you beneath that mound of clay


[Verse 3]
G                            C
Oh Lord why did you take her from me
    G                  D7
Why didn't you take me away
   G                         C
So I could have been there beside her
    G                  D7              G
All alone beneath that lonely mound of clay
