I don't want no fancy coffin
C G Dm
Don't lay me in no marble shrine
C G Dm
When I leave this god almighty earth
C G Dm
Want you lay me in a box of pine
[Verse]

I've had my share of women
C G Dm
I've had more than my share of wine
C G Dm
When I leave this god almighty earth
C G Dm
Want you to lay me in a box of pine
[Chorus]
G
Said I'll walk this earth until my last dying day
Dm C Dm
and I want to leave this world, in a righteous way
G
I rose from the ashes in the Bible's word I trust
Dm C G Dm
I want to go back to the ashes, I want to go back to the dust
[Instrumental]

Yesterday the sun did shine

Want you lay me in a box of pine
