Notes:

When I come to the end of the road
And the sun has set for me,
I want no rites in a gloom-filled room,
Why cry for a soul set free...
Miss me-- but let me go.
For this is a journey that we all must take,
And each must go alone
It's all a part of the master's plan,
A step oa the road to hime.
When you are lonely and sickj of heart,
Go to the friends we know,
And bury your sorrows in doing good deeds,
And miss me but let me go.
