One Dyin' and a Buryin'--Roger Miller

written by Roger Miller

Corrections welcome.

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

I wanna be free

REPEAT CHORUS 2
