talk to the people [G] that lie beneath these stones
[A] Imagining their [Am] design makes me feel less [Em] alone
I pick up the broken flowers, [D] sometimes I dig a hole
[A] Welcoming the new [Am] ones, introducing them to [Em] the old

can use a chisel [G] and a polisher the same
[Am] I'll put anything you'd like to say under [Em] a name
[G] I'll [Em]
put on my suit, [D] make sure my tie is straight
[A] Lend a [Am] hand to the mourning, sending loved ones on [Em] their way
Well [G] I ain't afraid of dying, [A] cause I know where [Am] I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made [Em] of gold
_ [A] [G] Till then I'm working, [A] you won't hear [Am] me complain
_ Everyday I'll tip my hat to the rock that says [Em] my name

[G] _ [E] _ _ [Em] _ I hired on out of high school [D] in 1968
[Am] My wife and I picked out a spot right up [Em] by the gate
_ It ain't much but every [D] morning the sun shines on that ground
[A] And one of these [Am] days when I clock out, that's where [A] I'm laying [Em] down
Well [G] I ain't afraid of dying, [A] cause I [Am] know where I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made [Em] of gold
_ [G] Till then I'll keep on working, [A] you won't hear [Am] me complain
Everyday I'll tip my hat to the rock that [Em] says my name

_ [Em] _ _ _ [D] Old born in Alabama, [Am] year 1950
[Em] Throw the dirt on top of me, shove [D] the seed, let [C] it grow _ _
Well [D] I ain't afraid of dying, [A] cause I know [Am] where I'll go
There I'll live forever on the streets made [E] of gold
[Em] _
[A] [G] Till then I'll keep on working, [A] you won't hear [Am] me complain
Everyday I'll tip my hat to the rock that says [Em] my name _

Stop by sometime and tip your hat to the rock that [Em] says my name

[D] _ _ _ _ [Am] Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, [Em] and where thieves break through and steal
But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, [D] and where thieves do not break through nor steal
[A] For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also _
