(guitar solo, 4 measures of A; then other instruments enter, 4 more

measures of A)


                       D

I'll go, I'll go to my grave

                   A

To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

                            D

I'd give, I'd give all I've saved

                  E

I've saved lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

  A

& should, & should I live again

     D              B7

Even then, it won't end

         A                 E

For I'll go, I'll go to my grave

                   D                       A

To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you


Bridge:

      D

Oh to take his place forever

        A

There's nothin' I wouldn't give

    B7                        E          E7

I'd prove to you daily what a man really is


Verse 2:

I'll lay, I'll lay down my life

Down my life lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you

I'd work, I'd work day & night

Day & night lovin' you (lovin' you)

lovin' you, lovin' you

& when, & when life calls us both above

Honey you'll know that you'd been loved

For I'll go, I'll go to my grave

To my grave lovin' you (lovin' you) lovin' you
