When They Take That Last Look At Me – Roy Acuff
Album: Country Gospel
Chorded by Gary W, 31 Aug 2006
Intro: Follow pattern of last lines of first verse*
(G) When I come to the end of lives journey
And I’ve gone the last mile of the (D) way (D7)
* When (G) friends come to cry and (C) kiss me good-(G)-bye
* I wonder just (D7) what they will (G) say
Chorus
When they (C) lay me to rest, in a (G) casket of white
From this troubled old world I’ll be (D) free (D7)
Oh (G) what will they say, as they (C) walk slowly (G) by
When they take that last (D7) look at (G) me
Instrumental: Follow pattern of ENTIRE first verse
(G) When they candle me weeping and mourning
Then the crowd will walk slowly a-(D)-way (D7)
When they (G) look at the lace that (C) covers my (G) face
I wonder just (D7) what they will (G) say
Chorus
Instrumental: Same as Intro*
(G) When I’m left all alone in the graveyard
And they’ve laid me beneath the cold (D) clay (D7)
When the (G) flowers they gave are (C) placed on my (G) grave
I wonder just (D7) what they will (G) say
Chorus
