Chorus
C G Oh, I'm going away, I'm going to stay, and never coming home D Gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come, G When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up C G And when you think of me, gonna wish me back, your loving man, D G You're gonna miss me honey in the day they say's to come.

C G Oh, I'm going away, I'm going to stay, and never coming home D Gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come, G When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up C G And when you think of me, gonna wish me back, your loving man, D G You're gonna miss me honey in the day they say's to come.

G Send for your rubber-tired hearses, send for your rubber-tired hacks, C G Carry little Johnny to the graveyard, I've shot him in the back D G With a great big gun, as he went to run G Send for a thousand policemen.

Chorus
C G Oh, I'm going away, I'm going to stay, and never coming home D Gonna miss me, honey, in the days to come, G When the winter winds begin to blow, the ground is covered up C G And when you think of me, gonna wish me back, your loving man, D G You're gonna miss me honey in the day they say's to come.
