GWhen (320003@1)I die won't you please feed me
GTo (320003@1)the lions of the Kalahari
GI (320003@1)don't care if they eat my bones
GCause (320003@1)I know I won't be going home


(Chorus)            
C (x32010@1)      Am (x02210@1)                GOh, (320003@1)it's never far away from me
C (x32010@1)      Am (x02210@1)                GOh, (320003@1)it's never far away from me


GRubber (320003@1)on dust as the wheels go round
GI (320003@1)had never heard a sweeter sound
GTill (320003@1)the day that I heard my baby cry
GThese (320003@1)things I shall carry until I die

The rains came heavy and we closed our eyes
    Em (022000@1)            D (xx0232@1)          G (320003@1)      EmAnd (022000@1)listened to the song pouring from the skies
    D (xx0232@1)                                EmTwo (022000@1)miles from the border as the eagle flies
        Em (022000@1)          D (xx0232@1)         G (320003@1)   EmBut (022000@1)the desert is the same on the other side

GThe (320003@1)leaves on Mt. Royal turn from green to gold
GAnd (320003@1)crimson as the autumn light takes hold
GOctober's (320003@1)here, I'm another year old
GThere'll (320003@1)be more tellin' 'fore my story is told

GOh, (320003@1)When I die won't you please feed me
GTo (320003@1)the lions of the Kalahari
GI (320003@1)don't care if they eat my bones
GCause (320003@1)I know I won't be going home


C (x32010@1)      Am (x02210@1)                GOh, (320003@1)it's never far away from me
