When I Die

G         D                C     G
when  I   die  won't  you  bury  me
         C           G        D
in  the  town  where  I  was born
G         D                      C       G
most  of  my  life  I've  been  rambling  free
          C              D          G
when  I  die I  want  to come  back home

G     D                 C   G
ever  since  I  was  a  baby  child
    C         G        D
I  knew  was  born  to  roam
G           D               C             G
I  had  to  climb  to  the  top  of  the  hill
C                   G      D
just  to  see  what  lies  beyond
G             D          C                G
now  seasons  change  but  I'm  still  the  same,
C         G             D
I  don't  belong  to  anyone
G          D         C          G
still  a  piece  of  me  will  always
    C                 D        G
be  sitting  in  my  hometown  sun

G         D                C     G
when  I   die  won't  you  bury  me
         C           G        D
in  the  town  where  I  was born
G         D                      C       G
most  of  my  life  I've  been  rambling  free
          C              D          G
when  I  die I  want  to come  back home

G        D   C         G
In  my  time  I  have  seen
      C        G       D
ten  thousand  setting  suns
G                D              C       G
and  I  made  my  bed  where  I  lay  my  head
    C           G      D
and  it  never  hurt  anyone
G              D           C             G
it could  be  said  that  someone  like  me
        C                G        D
ain't  nothing  but  a  prodigal  son
 G                D         C     G
and  just  like  that  prodigal  boy
                  C             D         G
I'm  going  to  finish  off  where  I  begun
