When I Go Away
Performed Carolyn Wonderland
Written by Larry Campbell
Am
Early in the morning, when the church bells toll
G7
The choir's gonna sing, and the hearse will roll
Am
On down to the graveyard, where it's cold and gray
C G D Am
And then the sun's gonna shine through the shadows when I go away
Am
Don't want no sorrow, for this old orphan boy
G7
I don't want no crying, only tears of joy
Am
I'm gonna see my mother, gonna see my father
C G D Am
And I'll be bound for glory in the morning when I go away
G Am
I'll be lifted up to the clouds on the wings of angels
G E7
There's only flesh and bones in the ground where my troubles will stay
Am
See that storm over yonder, it's gonna rain all day
C G D Am
But then the sun's gonna shine through the shadows when I go away

I'm going home - (Lift me up). No more troubles (When I go away)
N.C.
I'm going home - (Lift me up) No more crying
N.C.
I'm going home - (Lift me up) No more trials
N.C.
I'm going home to leave my worries in the ground
N.C.
I'm going home - (Lift me up) No more trouble no
N.C.
I'm going home - (Lift me up) No more crying

I'm going home - (Lift me up) No more trials
N.C.
I'm going home to leave my worries in the graveyard
N.C.
Home to leave my troubles in the graveyard
N.C.
Home to leave my trials
C G D Am
And I'll be bound for glory in the morning when I go away
Am
All my kin who love me, all my friends who care
G7
Look beyond the dark clouds we're gonna meet up there
Am
When they lay me in the cold ground, bow your heads and pray
C G D Am
And I'll be bound for glory in the morning when I go away
C G D Am
And then the sun's gonna shine through the shadows when I go away
