One Dyin And A Buryin chords by Roger Miller

Capo II

(First verse/chorus: key of E)

INTRO: D

(Spoken)
D
Well, I think I finally found me a sure-fire way to forget
It's so simple, I'm surprised I hadn't done thought of it before yet
It's foolproof - well, it's foolhardy, maybe, but who knows
Anyway, here I am walking toward where the cold dark water flows
Causes all it takes is


CHORUS 1:
                G
One dying and a buryin'
A                D
One dying and a buryin'
          G               Bm-Am
Some crying, six carrying me
           D
I wanna be free

(Second verse/chorus: Key of C)

     Bb
Oh...I wanna be free

(Spoken)
Bb
Free from all this heartache and regret
And free from pining for the love I can't forget
The love that once was warm and then just somehow turned to hate
Made my life a prison from which there's only one escape, and that's:


CHORUS 2:
                E7
One dying and a buryin'
F                Bb
One dying and a buryin'
        E7               Dm-Fm
Some cryin' six carryin' me
           Bb
