[Intro 1]
[D][D][D][D]
[D][D][D][D]

[Verse 1]
If you ev[D]er hear that thunder
Put your eye to the sky, boy, and wonder
Maybe there's a [G]kingdom above the weather
Oh, and whether you're gonna get on in
Is up to [D]he
If you ev[D]er hear that crying
In the distance like some siren
Maybe there's a [G]singer with no ring
Around their little fin[D]ger, no love

[Chorus 1]
And if I [Em]lose my voice
If I [G]have no choice but to go qui[D]et
Won't you [Em]sing for me a [G]melody
Into the night [D]air
And if I [Em]die too young, if the w[G]olf he comes
Fee-fi-fo-[D]fum
And if if [Em]I die too young, oh, if the lo[G]cust come
Well then, [D]run, run, run free

[Interlude 1]
[D][D][D][D]

[Verse 2]
If you ev[D]er hear that gunshot
You may think 'bout what you do
but you don't got
Say a pray[G]er, think of mother
I am a [D]rock
If you ev[D]er hear that sound now
If the door gets kicked in,
here they come now
Think of oth[G]ers, be their cover
I am what they're [D]not

[Chorus 2]
Pray for Par[Em]is, they cannot [G]scare us
Or stop the [D]music
You got a [Em]sweet voice, child
[G]Why don't you use[D] it?
And if I [Em]die too young,
if the [G]gunmen come
I'm full of [D]love
So release [Em]me, every piece o[G]f me
Up a[D]bove (up above)

[Interlude 2]
[D][D][D][D]
[D][D]

[Verse 3]
Love my [D]mama and my papa
Love my sister, can't stand the coppers
Up in their [G]choppers
Oh, flying over[D]head, forty-nine dead
Singing, [D]oh, my Lord, come carry me home
Oh, my Lord, come carry me home
I'm singing [G]oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my God, oh, my Lord
Oh, my [D]Lord

[Chorus 3]
And if I [Em]die too young
for something [G]I ain't done
Carry my [D]name every day
Oh, I'm [Em]sorry, oh, I'm [G]sorry
Freddie [D]Gray
But sleep [Em]easy like baby [G]Jesus in a [D]manger
Oh, sleep [Em]easy like little [G]Jesus
Beautiful [D]stranger

[Solo 1]
Oh, beautiful stranger

[Chorus 4]
If I [Em]die too young,
let [G]all that I've done be remem[D]bered
And I'll sleep [Em]easy
like baby [G]Jesus in his [D]manger
And I'll sleep [Em]easy like little [G]Jesus
Safe from [D]danger
Carry [Em]on ward like some so[G]ngbird
Beautiful [D]stranger
Carry on[Em]ward like some [G]songbird
Beautiful [D]stranger
Oh, beautiful stranger
