When the Grass Grows Over My

When the Grass Grows Over Me
By George Jones
 
G                         D7               G
I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
                                             C
When you left I thought that I would soon be over you
     D7                                G
Even told myself that I would find somebody new
                                               C
Time and tears have come and gone but not your memory
            G                 D7               G
But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
 
            C                             G
Yes I'll be over you when you're standing over me
    A7                                           D7
And as you look down at the cold cold ground I'm sleeping in
      G                                  C
Don't expect to hear me say that I still love you then
               G                D7                G
'Cause I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
 
                                          C
Even when my eyes are closed they keep on seeing you
      D7                            G
Every minute  I'm alive I'm hurting through and through
                               C
And as long as I live I know I won't be free
            G                D7                G
But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
 
Repeat #2
