[Verse 1]
Am F-G
I know a man who had nothing

He was a poor man all his life
Am F-G
He lived in a shack by the roadside
Am F-G
With starving kids and a loving wife
[Verse 2]
Am F-G
He went to church every Sunday
Am F-G
He prays from morning until night, he said
Am F-G
Good Lord, why have you forsaken me
Am F-G
When everything I did I thought was right

There's only one thing I'm wishing for

So I hope you won't ignore
G G..G..GGGG
What I'm asking for...
[Chorus 1]

Oh honey when I die
F G
Dress me up in a coat and tie
C
Give me a pair of shoes
F G
That I haven't wore in a long time
C
Put me in a golden box
F G
Not a cross with a pile of rocks
C
Bury me where the grass is green
F G
And the gates are shining...
[Chorus 2]
C G F
Oh honey when I die
C
Give me a bed of roses

Where I could lie

Licking every boot he sees just to survive
