The Waifs - When I Die

      Artist: The Waifs
Song: When I Die


[Chorus]

G        D            C     G
When I die won't you bury me
        C         G        D
In the town where I was born
G           D              C         G
Most of my life I've been rambling free
        C              D          G
When I die I want to come back home


[Verse 1]

G       D           C        G
Ever since I was a baby child
               C        G      D
I knew I was born to roam
G          D           C          G
I had to climb to the top of the hill
         C        G      D
Just to see what lies beyond


[Verse 2]

G             D           C           G
Now seasons change and I am still the same
           C        G      D
I don't belong to anyone
G             D           C           G
Still a piece of me will always be
           C        D      G
Sitting in my hometown sun


[Chorus]

G        D            C     G
When I die won't you bury me
        C         G        D
In the town where I was born
G           D              C         G
Most of my life I've been rambling free
        C              D          G
When I die I want to come back home


[Verse 3]

G       D      C     G
In my time I have seen 
        C         G        D
ten thousand setting suns
G           D              C         G
And I made my bed where I lay my head
        C         G        D
And it never hurt anyone


[Verse 4]

G             D          C         G
It could be said that a girl like me
        C         G        D
Ain't nothing but a prodigal son
G             D          C         G
And just like that prodigal boy
        C         D        G
I'm gonna finish off where I've begun


[Chorus]

G        D            C     G
When I die won't you bury me
        C         G        D
In the town where I was born
G           D              C         G
Most of my life I've been rambling free
        C              D          G
When I die I want to come back home
