[Intro]
F, G,F, G,F, G,F
[Verse 1]
[F]Boys workin on empty[G]
[F]Is that the kinda way to face the burning heat?[G]
[F]I just think about my baby[G]
[F]I'm so full of love I could barely eat
[Verse 2]
[F]There's nothing sweeter than my baby[G]

[F]Cause my baby's sweet as can be[G]
[F]She give me toothaches just from kissin me
[Cborus]

When, my, time comes around
Bb* C*
Lay me gently in the cold dark earth
G* F*
No grave can hold my body down
Bb*
I'll crawl home to her
[Verse 3]
[F]That's when my baby found me[G]
[F]I was three days on a drunken sin[G]
[F]I woke with her walls around me[G]
[F]Nothin in her room but an empty crib
[Verse 4]
[F]And I was burnin up a fever[G]
[F]I didn't care much how long I lived[G]
[F]But I swear I thought I dreamed her[G]
[F]She never asked me once about the wrong I did

[Verse 5]
[F]My baby never fret none[G]
[F]About what my hands and my body done[G]
[F]If the Lord don't forgive me[G]
[F]I'd still have my baby and my babe would have me
[Verse 6]
[F]When I was kissing on my baby[G]
[F]And she put her love down soft and sweet[G]
[F]In the lowland plot I was free[G]
[F]Heaven and hell were words to me
[Cborus] X2
