C                               G7
In this world today while we're living
                                    C
Some folks say the worst of us they can
                                F
But when we are dead and in our caskets
     C                G7             C
They always slip some lilies in your hand
                                       G7
Won't you give me my flowers while I'm living
                              C
And let me enjoy them while I can
                                       F
Please don't wait till I'm ready to be buried
    C              G7           C
And then slip some lilies in my hand
                                   G7
In this world is where we need our flowers
                           C
A kind word to help us get along
                                       F
If you can't give me flowers while I'm living
     C            G7                  C
Then please don't throw them when I'm gone
                                       G7
Won't you give me my flowers while I'm living
                              C
And let me enjoy them while I can
                                       F
Please don't wait till I'm ready to be buried
    C              G7           C
And then slip some lilies in my hand
