[Ab] I will not go down under the ground
Cause somebody [Db] tells me that death's coming round
[Ab] And I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave [Db] my head will be high
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I go [Db] down [Ab] under the ground
There's been rumors of war and wars that have been
The meaning of [Db] life has been lost in the wind
[Ab] And some people thinking that the end is close by
Instead of learning to live they [Db] are learning to die
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I go [Db] down under [Ab] the ground
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see
When someone is pulling [Db] the wool over me
[Ab] And if this war comes and death's all around
Let me die on this land [Db] before I die underground
Let [Ab] me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I go [Db] down under [Ab] the ground
There's always been people that have to cause fear
They've been talking about a war now [Db] for many long years
[Ab] I've read all their statements and I've not said a word
But now Lord God let [Db] my poor voice be heard
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I [Db] go down under [Ab] the ground
Let me drink from the waters where the mountain streams flood
Let the smell of wild flowers flow [Db] free through my blood
[Ab] Let me sleep in your meadows with the green grassy leaves
Let me walk down the highway [Db] with my brother in peace
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I [Db] go down under [Ab] the ground
Go out in your country where the land meets the sun
See the craters and the canyons and [Db] where the waterfalls run
[Ab] Nevada, New Mexico, Arizona, Idaho
Let every state in this union [Db] seep deep down in your soul
[Ab] And you'll die [Db] in your footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] you go [Db] down [Ab] under the ground
Cause somebody [Db] tells me that death's coming round
[Ab] And I will not carry myself down to die
When I go to my grave [Db] my head will be high
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I go [Db] down [Ab] under the ground
There's been rumors of war and wars that have been
The meaning of [Db] life has been lost in the wind
[Ab] And some people thinking that the end is close by
Instead of learning to live they [Db] are learning to die
[Ab] Let me die [Db] in my footsteps
[Ab] Before [Eb] I go [Db] down under [Ab] the ground
I don't know if I'm smart but I think I can see
When someone is pulling [Db] the wool over me
[Ab] And if this war comes and death's all around
Let me die on this land [Db] before I die underground
Let [Ab] me die [Db] in my footsteps
