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
