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

G#                            C#
I stay here beside you little darling
G#                          D#
And I promise I'll never go away
G#                         C#
Until my life down here is over
G#                    D#                    G#
Then I'll be with you beneath that mound of clay

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