When I'm Gone

[Intro] G5 C7M

G5                 C7M
Bury my heart in a willow tree
    G5                        C7M
The branches give rise to the lowest leaves
     Em7         D9          C7M
Find shelter and shade in my arms

G5             C7M
Once I am gone don't mourn for me
  G5                            C7M
I hope you take pride in what I used to be
    Em7   D9       C7M
Let go of all your pain

Am                D9          G5    G7
Will you remember me when I'm gone?
Continues after the ad
   C7M             Am                 C7M
Or will you forget all, all that I've done?

G5                        C7M
I've made mistakes that I can't take back
G5                  C7M
I'm just a man both good and bad
Em7        D9          C7M
Can you forgive all my wrongs?

Am                D9          G5     G7
Will you remember me when I'm gone?
C7M                 Am          G5
And can you forgive all, all my wrongs?

Em           Am                  D9       G5
Memories may fade but what we create may stay
Em                    Am
Time holds the key of fate
     Am                  D9
Only time can reveal the gate

Am                D9          G5
Will you remember me when I'm gone?
   C7M             Am                 G5
Or will you forget all, all that I've done?

Em           Am                  D9       G5
Memories may fade but what we create may stay
Em                    Am
Time holds the key of fate
     Am          D9      G5
Only time can reveal the gate
