E C#m I haven't been sad now E C#m For so many years E C#m With no foe to fight A B7 Death's all I feared E B7 'Cause death could take you E B7 Death could take you A E And that's just what it do A E That's just what it do B7 A bird in my ear Was beaking away About all the jewels He'd come across that day Jewels in the grass Jewels in the grass Where the worms used to be Where the worms used to be The cattle were lowing They cried for your feet The clouds were your arches The cows were asleep And they spoke of you They spoke of you As they lay there and moo As they lay there and moo The house walls are tighter The bed it is small Housing just one soul Just one soul at all Where it once held two It once held two Now it doesn't hold you Now it doesn't hold you The ride and I won't be Towards working today That's good, that's over You are away And now I'll undo Now I'll undo That's just what I'll do That's just what I'll do End on E
