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
