Intro
Verse 1
He Was My Father's Cousin
And Mine Twice Removed
A Family Man, Hard-Workin'
He Left This World Too Soon
I Sat In The Church Pew
Tears Filled Up My Eyes
As All His Friends And Family
Talked About His Life
Verse 2
They Said He Was The Best Friend
A Man Could Ever Have
A Son And A Husband
A Jokester And A Dad
And It Sure Got Me Thinkin'
As They Laid His Body Down
What Story Will Be Told
When My Time Comes Around
Chorus
When I'm Gone, Will They Care
How Much Money That I've Made
Will My Success Or Failure
Be The Measure Of My Days
Or Was My Love All That Mattered All Along?
What Will They Say About Me When I'm Gone?
Verse 3
I Wanna Think They Have No Doubt
How Much I Really Care
Or Have I Been Too Busy
If I've Been More Gone Than There
Nobody Lives Forever
And It's Startin' To Sink In
The Way I'm Livin' Now
Will Be The Way They Tell It Then
Chorus
When I'm Gone, Will They Care
How Much Money That I've Made
Will My Success Or Failure
Be The Measure Of My Days
Or Was My Love All That Mattered All Along?
Oh, What Will They Say About Me When I'm Gone?
Interlude
Outro
When I'm Gone, Will They Care
How Much Money That I've Made
Will My Success Or Failure
Be The Measure Of My Days
Or Was My Love All That Mattered All Along?
Oh, What Will They Say About Me When I'm Gone?
