Verse:
C            G       
When I was a growing boy
C                     G
Rockin' on my daddy's knee
C                    G       A7
Daddy took an old guitar and sang
C                        G
"Bury me on the lone prairie"

C                       G
Uncle Bob sat at the piano
C                         G
My girl cousins sang harmony
C                       G      A7
Those were the good old family times
     C                  G
That left a big mark on me

C   G

C   G   A7
C   G

C                  G
Bury me out on the prairie
          C               G
Where the buffalo used to roam
          C                 G          A7
Where the Canada geese once filled the sky
    C                        G
And then I won't be far from home

C                  G
Bury me out on the prairie
          C               G
Where the buffalo used to roam
    C                    G        A7                  
You won't have to shed a tear for me
       C                        G
'Cause then I won't be far from home

C   G

C                             G
Walkin' down the Trans-Canada Highway
      C                G
I was talkin' to a firefly
C                        G                A7
Tryin' to make my way to Nashville, Tennessee
      C                    G
When another car passed me by

     C                      G
Some day I'm gonna make big money
    C                    G
And buy myself a big old car
        C                   G        A7
Make my way on down to that promised land
    C                        G
And then I'm gonna go really far

C   G

C                  G
Bury me out on the prairie
          C               G
Where the buffalo used to roam
          C                 G          A7
Where the Canada geese once filled the sky
    C                        G
And then I won't be far from home

     C                  G
Just bury me out on the prairie
          C               G
Where the buffalo used to roam
    C                    G        A7
You won't have to shed a tear for me
       C                        G
'Cause then I won't be far from home
