[Intro]
Em
[Verse 1]
Em G
Oh, bury me not on the lone prairie
G/F# Em G
These words came slow and mournfully
G
From the pallid lips of a youth who lay
G/F# Em C/G Em
In his dying bed at the close of day.
[Verse 2]
Em G
Oh, bury me not. And his voice failed there
G/F# Em G
But we took no heed to his dying prayer.
G
In a narrow grave, just six by three,
G/F# Em C/G Em
We buried him there on the lone prairie.
