I'm Not Afraid To Die

A
Nobody knows what waits ahead,
D                     A
Beyond the earth and sky.
D             A       E             A
La, de-la, de-la, I'm not afraid to die.

And let the work of my own hand,
Be broken by and by.
La, de-la, de-la, I'm not afraid to die

Sometimes it finds me fast asleep,
And wakes me where I lie.
La, de-la, de-la, I'm not afraid to die.

Forget my sins up on the wind,
My hobo soul will ride.
La, de-la, de-la, I'm not afraid to die.
La, de-la, de-la, I'm not afraid to die.
