If I Live

D G If I live to see next fall, D G I ain't gonna raise no cotton at all. A G I'm gonna take my rest and set around D A7 Watching the fields of summer go brown. D G And when the snow is on the ground, D G I ain't gonna jump at any old sound. A G A knocking door or a ringing phone, D A7 I'm just waiting for you to come home. G A7 D Just waiting for you to come home. D G And if I live to see next spring, D G I ain't gonna lauugh at any old thing. A G I'm gonna save up all of my jokes and tales D A7 And I won't tell a one while you're gone. D G Till I'm there with you in any old place, D G And hear your voice and touch your face. A G I'm saving it all for you, saving my heart for you, D A7 I'm just waiting for you to come home. G A7 D Just waiting for you to come home.
