Oh bury me not on the lone prarie
D
These words came low and mournfully
G
D G
On the bloody ground at the close of day
Oh bury me not and his voice fell there
But we took no heed to his dyin' prayer
In a narrow grave just six-by-three
We buried him there on the lone prarie
INSTRUMENTAL: D G
Oh bury me not on the lone prarie
Where the coyotes howl and the wind blows free
Where there's not a soul that will care for me
Oh bury me not on the lone prarie
