Bury Me Standing

[Intro ] G C Am D Verse G The wind blew from the fenland D 'cross the big November sky G C G wind chimes sang uncertainly D G all the camp was quiet Em I look hard to the horizon C G maybe soon they would come with their suits and their papers D to move my people on G C G I saw a skylark rising D from an empty field G C G another home we could have made D G D another home we have to leave Em I'm tired of their permissions C G to use what should be free tired of heavy voices D telling me what I should be Chorus D Em if I fall bury me standing C if I fall won't you bury me deep? I will not fade G I will not sleep Instrumental G C Am D Verse G C G the leaves of life are driven D ever since this world began G C G and the leaves of life have blown me round more than any woman can Em what I can't bear to remember C G is what I can't bear to forget D the road goes on forever our time's not over yet Chorus D Em if I fall bury me standing C if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade G I will not sleep Instrumental G C Am D Chorus D Em if I fall bury me standing C if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade G I will not sleep D Em if I fall bury me standing C if I fall won’t you bury me deep? I will not fade G I will not sleep
