Let Me Die In My Footsteps (Bob Dylan)

by Bob Dylan

Edit

An early Bob Dylan tune recorded in '62 and to be found on his
Bootleg Series Vol. 1-3.

This is just the first verse, done by ear. I'm a newbie, so please
let me know if you think anything's wrong!

4  4    4  4 3    4   4  4   4    4
I will not go    down under the ground

   5   5  5  5    5   -4  4     4     4  4      4
'Cause somebody tells me that death's comin''round

4   4  4    4  4  3   4  4   4   4   4
An' I will not carry myself down to die

 4  -4 5  5  5  5  -4 4   4    4   4   4
When I go to my grave my head will be high,

 4  -3  3  3  3   -3   4
Let me die in my footsteps

-5 5   5 5   -4  4  4   4    4
Before I go down under the ground.
