Chords for Phil Ochs - When I'm Gone

[A#] _ _ _ _ _ _ [D] _
I'd like to do a song called When I'm Gone,
which is about the philosophy of all the songs I write. _ _ _
_ _ _ _ _ There's no place in this world
Where [Bm] I'll belong when I'm gone _ _
[D] And I won't [E] know the [F#] right from [A] the wrong
_ _ _ _ [D] And you [A] won't find me singing [Bm] on this song
When I'm gone
So [Em] I guess I'll [A] have to do it while [D] I'm here
_ _ _ _ _ Won't see the golden [Bm] of the sun when I'm gone
[Em] And the evenings and the [F#m] mornings will [A] be warm when I'm gone
_ _ [D] Can't be [A] singing louder [Bm] than the guns while I'm gone
[E] So I guess I'll [A] have to do it while [D] I'm here
Every past generation _ has had to [Dm] disenthrall itself
_ _ [B] From an inheritance of truisms and [G] stereotypes _ _
[F#] _ For the [D] great enemy [A] of the truth _ _ is very often not [D] the lie
_ [A]
Deliberate, _ [Bm] _ deprived, and dishonest
But the myth, _ [Em] _ persistent, [A] _
persuasive, _ [D] and unrealistic _ _ _
_ _ _ _ So in our time, [Bm] we must move on
From the reassuring [G] _ repetition [F#] of stale phrases
[D] _ [A] To a new, _ _ [D] difficult, _ but [A] essential _ confrontation [Bm] with reality
When I'm gone
So [E] I guess I'll [A] have to do it [D] while I'm here _ _ _ _
There's _ _ no _ place in this _ world
Where [Bm] I'll belong when I'm gone
_ [Em] And I won't know the [F#m] right [A] from the wrong _
And _ _ [D] you won't find [A] me singing [Bm] on this song
When I'm gone
So [Em] I guess I'll [A] have to do it
[Em] I guess I'll [A] have to do _ [Em] it
Guess I'll [A] have to do _ it
While [D] I'm here _ _ _ _ _
_ _ _ [Dm] _ _ _ _ _
