Biography:
The Milk Carton Kids is an American indie folk duo from Eagle Rock, California, United States, consisting of singers and guitarists Kenneth Pattengale and Joey Ryan, who formed the group in early 2011.
A performance by The Milk Carton Kids is a quiet and intricate affair. The duo have enjoyed intently listening audiences across the country and abroad in their respective solo careers, but an even greater sense of urgency and demand of attention is palpable now that they've come together as The Milk Carton Kids.

[Intro]
F C G C G
[Verse 1]
C Dm G
I lose sleep at night like a young man who's in the fight of his young life
F Dm G C G
I have never known the way the wind would blow if everything were fine
C Dm G
I'm scared that when I die I'll be alone with no one sitting by my side
F Dm G C G
No, I do not think that I could be alone when I die
[Chorus 1]
F C
Lay me down in the ground
F C
Put me back into the earth
F C
Among all of my friends
F C
Under a blanket of roses
F Dm F G
A sea of flowers overhead
[Verse 2]
C Dm G
A field outside of Nashville pitches color to the dreariness of day
F Dm G C G
So the air hangs soft and tender, blowin' 'round my thoughts whichever way
C Dm G
Where hills, they rise for miles and miles, I recognize the cryin' in the wind
F Dm G C G
I hear people come from everywhere to say goodbye sweet-like to their kin
[Chorus 1]
F C
Lay me down in the ground
F C
Put me back into the earth
F C
Among all of my friends
F C
Under a blanket of roses
F Dm F G
A sea of flowers overhead
[Chorus 2]
F C
That is right, I don't believe
F C
Anymore than skies above
F C
It's just me and those I've loved
F C
Under a blanket of roses
F Dm F G
A sea of flowers overhead
C F G C
When I die
