Johnny Cash - Bury Me Not On The Lone Prarie guitar chord

BURY ME NOT ON THE LONE PRARIE

"Ballads of the True West" 1965

KEY: G

INTRO: D G

N/C G

Oh bury me not on the lone prarie

D

These words came low and mournfully

G

From the pallid lips of a youth who lay

D G

On the bloody ground at the close of day

Oh bury me not and his voice fell there

But we took no heed to his dyin' prayer

In a narrow grave just six-by-three

We buried him there on the lone prarie

INSTRUMENTAL: D G

Oh bury me not on the lone prarie

Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free

Where there's not a soul that will care for me

Oh bury me not on the lone prarie
