And we'll [E]sell you the church in [A]the dale
To [D]find a simple

[Verse 6]
resting
place is my de[A]sire
To lay me down with a smiling
face comes a little [D]bit higher
My [G]likeness cast in brass,

[E]While weights and hidden springs will tip
it's hat to the [A]mourners [B]filing past

[Verse 7]
I [D]want to go [A]simply when I [D]go
They'll [F#]give me a simple
funeral there I [Bm]know

Oh [E]take me when I'm
[A]gone to Forest [D]Lawn

Rock of [D]ages [G]cleft for [D]me
Forest a slightly [A]higher [D]fee
Oh, [E]take me when I'm

[Verse 9]
[A]gone
to Forest [D]Lawn!
Amen
