When I Die

Intro 
G C 
D Em Am 


 
G       C 
 When I die, I want a party 
D            Em       Am 
Like the old times, I want to be a song 
G              C          D               Em 
I will say goodbye with a smile bathed in salt 
    Am 
For all that I loved 
G         C 
 And then Ill join the waters of March 
D          Em    Am 
 Drop your tears where the ground has dried 
  G             C    Em 
I might say goodbye, as Im sailing on 
         Am 
Like the sun in the dawn 
 

 
Em     D            C         D 
  Bury me with your favourite flowers 
Em     D            C          
  Bury me with your brightest colours 
         Em        Bm         Am    Em 
Dont you  dare to hide me in ivory towers 
  Bm              C 
I built a room in you

G       C 
 When I die, scatter my ashes 
D         Em            Am 
 Throw me down, give my atoms to the trees 
G           C             D             Em      Am 
'Cause this circle never, never, never, never lies 

And I hope you can 
 

 
Em     D            C         D 
  Bury me with your favourite flowers 
Em     D            C          
  Bury me with your brightest colours 
         Em        Bm         Am    Em 
Dont you  dare to hide me in ivory towers 
  Bm              C 
I built a room in you 
Em     D            C         D 
  Bury me with your favourite flowers 
Em     D            C          
  Bury me with your brightest colours 
       Em      Bm          Am     Em 
Can you  carry me all your waking hours? 
     Bm             C 
Just let me live in you 
     Bm             C 
Just let me live in you
