[G] [D] [Em]
[G] [D] [Em]
Don't [E] throw me no funeral
[G] Sister don't cry
[D] Saw that fiddle brother [Em] pass that shine
Deep down in the hollow
[G] Pick the tallest pine
[D] Dig it real deep where the [E] roofs touch mine
Cross the red river
Where [G] it opens wide
To [D] hell one sails to the [Em] Choctaw side
Follow my trail to a [G] cellar of stone
[D] Gather my body when you [Em] bury my bones
Won't you bury my bones?

If [C] I die, you'll [G] ride my mother
[D] Tell her that I love her but my [Em] soul's gone home
[C] And take me back [G] to Anderson County
[D] Drive real slow and take the long way home
[C] And tell my kin [G] to [D] go say [Em] them bury my bones
[C] Bury my bones [G] beneath these pines
