Burn My Body

E                   A       E
Burn my body in the Northern Field
E                    B7      E
Let the wind blow the ashes around
E                               A               E
And then you will know that my wounds have been healed
E                  B7        E
Cause Lord I'll be homeward bound

E
Let the flames warm your hands
         A              E
Let the glow light your way
               B7        E
These gifts to you I bestow
                          A         E
And noones listenin don't bother to pray
               B7          E
If you do lord I'll never know

E                  A          E
Well up and up the smoke will roll
                 B7          E
Like a cloud of frightened crows
E                  A        E
To Carry my not so immortal soul

Some words that are said can cut like a saw
E              B7           E
My ears nearly bled at the sound
                                A          E
And I cant help prepare for the springtime thaw
                  B7        E
cause lord ill be homeward bound

E
And the frost turns to flowers
         A            E
and they all start to bloom
                  B7       E
and theres nothin left to hoe
                      A         E
well tip one back and sing me a tune
                  B7         E      A
And never let the fire grow cold
E             B7         E
Never let the fire grow cold
