[Verso 1]
 
A                                D 
Look up look down this lonesome road 
D                   A 
Hang your head and cry 
A                                D 
For we often lose some things in life 
D                     A 
That makes us wonder why 
 


[Verso 2]
 
A                              D 
Oh the fairest love Ive ever had 
D                       A 
Now sleeps beneath the clay 
A                             D 
I live in hopes and dreams of her 
D                         A 
That we'll meet again someday 
 


[Verso 3]
 
A                      D 
I often sit and wonder why 
D                    A 
Life has to be this way 
A                          D 
But after all is said and done 
D                     A 
I'm sure God has his say 
 


[Verso 4]
 
A                               D 
I'd like to be a small part of life 
D                             A 
With some few small things to achieve 
A                                   D 
Just to know I've been a fruitless cause 
D                          A 
Would give my poor heart grief 
 


[Verso 5]
 
A                              D 
Now when they lower my casket down 
D                          A 
In some lonesome grave to rest 
A                                  D 
And you take your last look at my face 
D                     A 
You can say I did my best
