You Can Bet I'm Gone

Intro: D 



[Verso 1]
 
D                   A         D 
This ole world is a funny ole place 
                         G        D 
We're always running the same old race 
             G                         D 
You work and slave to try to ease your mind 
                                A                 D 
The very things you strive for, you gotta leave behind 
 


[Verso 2]
 
               D 
What I know so far, near as I can tell 
                               G       D 
Heaven's here on earth and the soul is it 
                   G                    D 
Just the air we're given and the stars above 
                            A               D 
You can measure your riches by the ones you love 
 


[Refrão]
 
               G                    D 
When I say goodbye, you can bet I'm gone 
                Bm                                    A 
When a lonesome freight-train whistle blows its weary song 
               G                    D 
When I see the light of a brand new dawn 
                    A               D 
When I say goodbye, you can bet I'm gone

[Verso 3]
 
       D          A       D 
When I die, don't toll no bells 
                          G       D 
Just put my ashes in some shotgun shells 
              G                  D 
Get all of my friends some windy day 
                   A              D 
To say goodbye and watch me blow away 
 


[Verso 4]
 
                   D            A        D 
When the wind dies down and the day gets late 
                          G        D 
I'll be all scattered all over the state 
                   G                  D 
And you know which state I'm talking about 
                     A                D 
The place I love and I can't live without

               G                    D 
When I see the light of a brand new dawn

When I say goodbye
