Lyrics
"Oh, bury me (G6)not on the lone prairie;"
these the words came (Am)low and so (G6)mournfully from the pallid lips of a youth who lay on his dying (Am)bed at the close of (G6)day.
"Oh, bury me (G6)not on the lone prairie,
where we coyotes (Am)howl and the wind blows (G6)free,
in a narrow grave just a six by three.
Oh, bury me (Am)not on the lone (G6)prairie.
Oh, bury me
Yes, we buried him (C6)there on the lone prairie,
where the owl all (Dm)night hoots (C6)mournfully,
and the blizzard beats and the wind blows free o'er his lonely (Dm)grave on the lone (C6)prairie,
o'er his lonely (Dm)grave on the lone (C6)prairie.
