George Jones - When The Grass Grows Over Me Lyrics






I'll be your when the grass grows over me.

When you left I thought that I would soon get over you
Even told myself that I would find somebody too
Time and tears have come and gone but not your memory
But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

Yes, I'll be over you when you're standing over me
And as you look down at the cold
Cold ground I'm sleeping in
Don't expect to hear me say that I still love you
'Cause I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

Even when my eyes are closed they keep on seeing you
Every minute of the night I'm hurting through and through
And as long as I live I know I won't be free
But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

Yes, I'll be over you when you're standing over me
And as you look down at the cold
Cold ground I'm sleeping in
Don't expect to hear me say that I still love you then
'Cause I'll be over you when the grass grows over me...

    Indeed. I was grateful to see him once. It was a few years before he passed away and you could see his health was starting to fail, as he didn't move around much on stage. But my God, that voice! He still sounded great.

  19. R.... ....

    His voice sounds like the slide guitar. I think that's part of his charm.

    R.... ....

    RMS1611 maybe the slide guitar was imitating George's voice.

    But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

    (Chorus:)
    Yes I'll be over you when you're standing over me
    And as you look down at the cold cold ground I'm sleeping in
    Don't expect to hear me say that I still love you then
    'Cause I'll be over you when the grass grows over me

    Even when my eyes are closed they keep on seeing you
    Every minute I'm alive I'm hurting through and through
    And as long as I live I know I won't be free
    But I'll be over you when the grass grows over me
