To Love Is to Bury Cowboy Junkies
INTRO:
G Am C G 2x Then
[D] [Am] [C] [G] [Bm] [C] [G] [C] [G]
I [G]buried him down by the [Am]river
'Cause th[C]ats where he liked to [G]be.
And ev[G]ery night when the [Am]moon is high
I [C]go there and weep ope[G]nly.
[D]He and I were [Am]married
By the r[C]iver 'neath this willow [G]tree
And with[Bm] God and friends wi[Am]tnessing on
[Am]He pledged his [C]life to[G] me
[G]To me he was [Am]earth, I roo[C]ted in his [G]soil.
I [G]to he was s[Am]ky vast and free
Of the [C]burdens from which he [G]toiled.
[D]Then one night a te[Am]rrible fight
Words s[C]poken better left un[G]said.
With his[Bm] wedding vows ringing in m[Am]y ears
He gave his [C]life to [G]me.
BREAK: G Am C G 2x D Am C G Bm C G C G
[G]They say to love is to [Am]bury
Those[C] demons from which we all[G] hide,
But to[D]night by this river 'neath this [Bm]willow tree
Beco[Bm]ming one are [Am]earth and [G]sky.
