No, I do not think that I could be alone when I die
[Chorus 1]
       F            C
Lay me down in the ground

       F             C
Put me back into the earth

      F            C
Among all of my friends

Under a blanket of roses

   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead

So the air hangs soft and tender, blowin' 'round my thoughts whichever way

Where hills, they rise for miles and miles, I recognize the cryin' in the wind

Fm           C                  Dm      G        C         G
I hear people come from everywhere to say goodbye sweet-like to their kin

Under a blanket of roses

   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead

          F               C
That is right, I don't believe

    F                C
Anymore than skies above

          F                  C
It's just me and those I've loved

         F          C
Under a blanket of roses

   F      Dm    F     G
A sea of flowers overhead

        C     F   G   C
When I die
