If I Get Murdered In The City Ukulele

(ver. 1)
The Avett Brothers
Murdered In The City

Not sure quite how it's picked out, but this is the chords.  I personally just play it 
these.

Capo 2nd Fret

C         G           Am
If I get murdered in the city
F         G               C
don't go revenging in my name
C          G                 Am
One person dead from such is plenty
F          G             C
No need to go get locked away.
Am       G         C
When I leave your arms
Am      G              C
the things that I think of
Am      G        C
No need to get overalarmed
Am       G
I'm coming home

***Interlude goes something like***

C G Am F C G C

***Just like the beginning verse but C and G reversed.***

C        G             Am
I wonder which sibling is better
F       G                    C
which one our parents loved the most
C          G                     Am
I sure did get in lots of trouble
F         G              C
They seemed to let the other go
Am             G            C
A tear fell from my fathers eye
Am            G              C
I wondered what my dad would say
***Careful here it changes up a bit***
Am          G        C                F
He'd say I love you and I'm proud of you both
C     G               C
In so many different ways

***Interlude again minus the C cause we just played one***

G Am F C G C

C        G              Am
If I get murdered in the city
F       G                 C
Go read the letter in my desk
C            G                 Am
Don't bother with all my belongings
F        G                 C
But pay attention to the list
Am              G           C
Make sure my sister knows I loved her
Am           G                C
Make sure my mother knows the same

Am         G                C                                                            
              F
Always remember there was nothing worth sharing
          Am                   C
like the love that let us share our name.
