Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone chords by The Carter Family

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: Novice

E
When death shall close these eyelids
          A                   E
And this heart shall cease to beat

And they lay me down to rest
B7
In a flowery bound retreat

Chorus:
E
Will you miss me? (miss me when I'm gone)
A        E
Will you miss me? (miss me when I'm gone)
E

Will you miss me? (miss me when I'm gone)
B7                        E
Will you miss me when I'm gone?

Verse:
Perhaps you'll plant a flower
upon my poor unworthy grave
and you'll sit along beside me
when the roses nod and wave

Chorus

Verse:
One sweet thought my soul shall cherish
when this fleeting life has flown.
This sweet thought will cheer when dying.
Will you miss me when I'm gone?

When these lips shall never more
press a kiss upon thy brow.
But lie cold and still in death
Will you love me then as now?

THE END!
