Song: When I Die
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 1]
G D C G
Ever since I was a baby child
C G D
I knew I 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
[Verse 2]
G D C G
Now seasons change and I am still the same
C G D
I don't belong to anyone
G D C G
Still a piece of me will always be
C D G
Sitting in my hometown sun
[Chorus]
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
[Verse 3]
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
[Verse 4]
G D C G
It could be said that a girl 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 gonna finish off where I've begun
[Chorus]
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
Song: When I Die
