Leave This World

Leave this world what a joy that would be

what a joy that would be to be sure

had my days surely those were enough

and I don’t want to stay any more

no I don’t want to stay any more

BR Oh I know that my life is past

Please just let me go very soon

If you want to be here for long

please be sure that you know what it’s for

I was young had my fun, now I’ll go

I’m just waiting to knock at the door

[INST]

BR Ain’t no fun being old so you know

I am struggling to tie up my boots

To the earth we all must return

I can’t wait to get back to my roots [RPT]

Leave this world what a joy that would be

what a joy that would be to be sure

Composition Notes

This is as it suggests a song about dying happily

The introduction is supposed to sound like a celeste.
