Verse 1
Oh, (C major) bury me (A minor) not (G major) on the lone
(C major) prairie. (A minor) (G major)
(C major) These words (A minor) came low (G major) and (E flat major) mournfully
(A minor) (G major) From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
(A minor) On his dying (G major) bed at the (C major) close of day.
Oh, bury me (G major) not on (A minor) a lone prairie
Where (C major) the wild coyotes (A minor)
(C major) will (G major) howl over me
(D major) In a nar (A minor) row grave (G major) (A minor) just (C major) (G major) six by (A minor) three
(G major) Bury me (A minor) not on a lone (G major) prairie, (C major)
and it (G major) matters (C major) not, (A minor) and I have been (G major) told,
where (A minor) the body lies (G major)
when the heart grows (A minor) cold.
Oh, (G major) Lord, please grant (E minor) this (A minor) wish to (G major) me,
and bury (A minor) me not on (E minor) (A minor) the lone (G major) prairie,
(C major) oh, bury me not."
(G major) And his (A minor) voice failed there,
(G major) but we (A minor) took no heed of his dying prayer.
An (G major) (A minor) d in a narrow grave, just six by three,
(G major) we buried that cow (F major) boy
out on the lone prairie. (G major)
Oh, (C major) we buried him (G major) there on (A minor) the lone prairie,
(G major) where (C major) the (G major) rattlesnakes crawl
and (A minor) the wind (G major) blows free
where (A minor) (D major) (G major) the buffalo roam
(A minor) an (C major) d the (A minor) tumble (G major) weeds will cover his
(A minor) grave on (G major) a lone (A minor) prairie
(C major) please (A minor) don't let (G major) that hap
(A minor) pen (C major) to (A minor) me (G major)
bury me not (E minor) on (A minor) (C major) that lone (G major) prairie
(A minor) where (C major) the (A minor) buzzards (G major) wait
and the wind blows free (A minor) (G major)
i'm begging (A minor) you (G major) please (C major)
(G major) Bury (A minor) me not on the lone (G major) prairie. (C major) (A minor)
(C major) (A minor) (G major) (A minor) (C major) (A minor) (C major) (A minor)
(G major) Some (D major) times I (A minor) feel like a
(D major) motherless child
Sometimes (G major) I feel (D major) like
a motherless child
(G major) Some (A minor) times I (D major) feel (A minor) like (D major) a
motherless (A minor) child (G major)
And (D major) I've got no place (A minor) to (G major) (D major) call my home
