Willie Nelson – Gravedigger chords

Gravedigger
Willie Nelson
Tabbed by: Juan Hernandez
This is how I play this song, I don't know if this is
the exact same way Willie plays it, but it sounds good.

Intro: Am | G | E | Am G | D/F# | Am | Am

Am                 G Cyrus Jones, 1810 to 1913
F               Made his great grandchildren believe
        AmHe could live to a hundred and three
Am                              G A hundred and three is forever when you're just a little 
kid
F                     AmSo Cyrus Jones lived forever

Chorus: (Note: played the same as the intro)

             G     When you dig my grave
