[A] [E] [D] [A]

I live in the cemetery, ol' caretaker they call me,

[A] [E] [D] [A]

in the wintertime I rake the leaves and in the summer I cut the weeds.

[D] [A]

When a funeral comes the people cry and pray,

[E] [A]

they bury their dead, then they all go away,

[D] [A]

and here I work and I somehow hide

[E] [A]

from a world that rushes by outside.

[D] [A]

But each night when I rest my head,

[E] [D] [A]

I'm contented as the peaceful death.

[A]

But who's gonna cry when old John dies,

[E] [D] [A]

who's gonna cry when old John dies ?

[A] [E] [D] [A]

Once I was a young man dashing with the girls,

[A] [E] [D] [A]

now no one wants an old man, I lost my handsome curls.

[D] [A]

But I wanna say when my time comes,

[E] [A]

lay me facing the rising sun,

[D] [A]

put me in the corner where I buried my pup,

[E] [A]

tell the preacher to pray then cover me up.

[D] [A]

Don't plant flowers where my head should be,

[E] [A]

maybe God would let some grow for me.

[D] [A]

And all the little children that I love like my own,

[E] [D] [A]

will they be sorry that old John's gone ?

[A]

Who's gonna cry when old John dies,

[E] [D] [A]

who's gonna cry when old John dies ?
