When I am gone sing for me no sad songs plant no flowers at my head

Feed the green grass that coveres me or a dew drop wet

And I hope you'll remember even if I forget

And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[ dobro ]

My eyes will be blinded my ears will not hear

So sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[ dobro ]

The stone at my head will say that I'm gone that all my seeds have been sown

But I'll leave with you my memory in silence to live on

And I hope you'll remember even if I forget

And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears

[ dobro ]

My eyes will be blinded...

Shed me no tears shed me no tears
