G5            D5                       C5       G5 
when  I   die  won't  you  bury  me 
            C5                  G5          D5   
in  the  town  where  I  was born   
G5            D5                             C5            G5 
most  of  my  life  I've  been  rambling  free   
               C5                   D5                 G5 
when  I  die I  want  to come  back home 
G5       D5                      C5      G5     
ever  since  I  was  a  baby  child    
     C5               G5          D5 
I  knew  was  born  to  roam   
G5              D5                   C5                G5 
I  had  to  climb  to  the  top  of  the  hill  
C5                          G5       D5                   
just  to  see  what  lies  beyond 
G5                     D5                C5                   G5   
now  seasons  change  but  I'm  still  the  same, 
C5           G5                   D5 
I  don't  belong  to  anyone  
G5          D5           C5             G5  
still  a  piece  of  me  will  always 
      C5                       D5             G5 
be  sitting  in  my  hometown  sun   
G5            D5                       C5       G5 
when  I   die  won't  you  bury  me 
            C5                  G5          D5   
in  the  town  where  I  was born   
G5            D5                             C5            G5 
most  of  my  life  I've  been  rambling  free   
               C5                   D5                 G5 
when  I  die I  want  to come  back home 
G5          D5    C5            G5 
In  my  time  I  have  seen 
        C5             G5         D5  
ten  thousand  setting  suns 
G5                         D5                    C5          G5   
and  I  made  my  bed  where  I  lay  my  head 
       C5             G5       D5   
and  it  never  hurt  anyone 
G5                  D5              C5                    G5  
it could  be  said  that  someone  like  me  
           C5                     G5           D5  
ain't  nothing  but  a  prodigal  son 
 G5                    D5             C5     G5   
and  just  like  that  prodigal  boy   
                        C5                  D5            G5 
I'm  going  to  finish  off  where  I  begun
