Track 4 of 11 on the album "Reflections" (1978) [Intro] B7 E [Verse 1]
         E              E7      A            E
When the last breath of life is gone from my body

                              B7
And my lips are as cold as the sea

        E               E7        A           E
When my friends gather 'round for my farewell party

      B7                  E    E7
Won't you pretend you love me?
[Chorus]
            A                         E
There'll be flowers from those who'll cry when I'm gone

                            B7
And leave you in this world alone

  E                E7     A           E
I know you'll have fun at my farewell party

  B7                          E
I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
[Interlude] E E7 A E B7 E C#7 [Verse 2]
      F#        F#7    B          F#
Don't be mad at me for wanting to keep you

                               C#7
'til my life on this old world is through

          F#          F#7    B           F#
You'll be free at the end of my farewell party

    C#7                F#   F#7
But I'll go away loving you
[Chorus]
            B                         F#
There'll be flowers from those who'll cry when I'm gone

                                C#7
And leave you in this old world alone

  F#               F#7    B           F#
I know you'll have fun at my farewell party

  C#7                         F#
I know you'll be glad when I'm gone

      C#7                         B     Bm
Oh, I know you'll be glad when I'm gone
F# C#7 F#
