Shed Me No Tears
When I am gone
Sing for me no sad songs
Plant no flowers at my head
Be the green grass that covers me
All dew-dropped wet
And I hope you'll remember even if I forget
CHORUS
And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears
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've 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
[REPEAT CHORUS]
AD LIB:
Shed me no tears shed me no tears
Sing for me no sad songs
Plant no flowers at my head
Be the green grass that covers me
All dew-dropped wet
And I hope you'll remember even if I forget
CHORUS
And sing me no sad songs and shed me no tears
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've 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
[REPEAT CHORUS]
AD LIB:
Shed me no tears shed me no tears
