Will You Miss Me When I'm Gone? — Walkabouts, The

When death shall close these eyelids When death shall close these eyelids And this heart shall cease to beat And this heart shall cease to beat And they lay me down to rest And they lay me down to rest In some flowery-bound retreat In some flowery-bound retreat

Will you miss, miss me, when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone Will you miss when I'm gone Will you miss when i'm gone

Perhaps you'll plant a flower Perhaps you'll plant a flower On my poor unworthy grave On my poor unworthy grave And come sit alone beside me And come sit alone beside me When the roses nod and wave When the roses nod and wave

Will you miss, miss me, when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone Will you miss when I'm gone Will you miss when i'm gone

One sweet thought my soul shall cherish One sweet thought my soul shall cherish Till this fleeting life has flown Till this fleeting life has flown This sweet thought will cheer when dying This sweet thought will cheer when dying You will miss me when I'm gone You will miss me when i'm gone

Will you miss, miss me, when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, when i'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when I'm gone Will you miss, miss me, miss me when i'm gone Will you miss when I'm gone Will you miss when i'm gone
