Intro. G
G"Oh G6bury me Emnot Em7on the Em/Glone PraGirie"
GThese G6words came Emlow Em7and Emmourn - Em4ful - Gly
G G(5 G Gm7
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
GOn his dying Embed at the Em7close of Gday.
GHe hG6as wasted Emand Em7pined 'til o'Em/Ger his bGrow
GDeath'G6s shades weEmre sEm7lowlEmy gatherEm4ing noGw.
G G(5 G Gm7
He thought of home and loved ones nigh,
GAnd the cowboEmys gathered Em7to see hGim die.
G"Oh G6bury me Emnot Em7on the Em/Glone PraGirie,
GWhere G6the coyotes EmhowEm7l anEmd the wiEm4nd bloGws free.
G G(5 G Gm7
In a narrow grave just six by three
GOh bury me noEmt on the loEm7ne PrairiGe."
G"It G6matters Emnot, Em7I've oEm/Gft been Gtold,
GWhere G6the body liEmes wEm7hen Emthe hearEm4t growGs cold.
G G(5 G Gm7
Yet grant, oh grant, this wish to me,
GOh bury me noEmt on the loEm7ne PrairiGe."
G"I'vG6e always EmwisEm7hed to Em/Gbe laid Gwhen I died
GIn a lG6ittle churcEmhyarEm7d on Ema green Em4hillsGide.
G G(5 G Gm7
By my father's grave there let me be,
GOh bury me noEmt on the loEm7ne PrairiGe."
G"I wG6ish to lEmie wEm7here a Em/Gmother's Gprayer
G]And a G6sister's teEmar wEm7ill Emmingle tEm4here. [G. G G(5 G Gm7
Where friends can come and weep o'er me.
GOh bury me noEmt on the loEm7ne PrairiGe."
G"For G6there's EmanoEm7ther whEm/Gose tearGs will shed
G]For thG6e one who lEmies Em7in a EmPrairie Em4bed. [G. G G(5 G Gm7
It breaks my heart to think of her now,
GShe has curled thesEme locks; she haEm7s kissed this bGrow."
G"Oh G6bury me Emnot.Em7.." And Em/Ghis voiGce failed there
GBut thG6ey took no Emheed Em7to Emhis dyinEm4g prayGer.
G G(5 G Gm7
In a narrow grave, just six by three,
GThey buried hEmim there on Em7the lone GPrairie.
GAnd G6the cowbEmoys Em7now as Em/Gthey roaGm the plain
GFor thG6ey marked tEmhe sEm7pot Emwhere hiEm4s boneGs were lain,
G G(5 G Gm7
Fling a handful of roses o'er his grave
GWith a prayer Emto God, hiEm7s soul to Gsave.
