D                      G
Oh I love you baby.  I love you night and day.
D                      G
When I leave you baby. Don't cry the night away.
D                              G
When I die don't you write. No words upon my tomb.
D                                  G
I don't believe I want to leave no epitaph of doom.

D              A            D          G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A                D     G A
I want to leave some happy woman living on.
D              A          D            G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A               G            D
don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave.

(note � at the end of the first chorus couplet, G-&gt;A progression is much quicker than
other changes � same as in the outro)

D                         G
Oh my Melinda, she's out to get my hide.
D                            G
She's got a shotgun and her daughter by her side.
D                    G
Hey there ladies. Johnson's free.
D                                     G
Who's got the love, who's got enough to keep a man like me?

D              A            D          G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A                D     G A
I want to leave some happy woman living on.
D              A          D            G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A               G            D
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave.

Instrumental / solo (to play this, you need a kazoo and to forget how to play the guitar
� otherwise, twiddling on the D pentatonic suffices)

D              A            D          G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A               D     G A
I want to leave some happy woman living on.
D              A          D            G
Oh oh oh oh. When I'm dead and gone
D                    A               G            D
Don't want nobody to mourn beside my grave.

Outro:

D / / / G / A / (repeat &amp; fade � or end on D)
