I'll Be Gone:Pozo Seco Singers.
#34 Easy Listening and #92 on BB
Hot 100 on COLUMBIA Records in 1966.
INTRO:  Eb   Fm   Eb(x2)
#1.
EbWhen the quiet evening comes and the Fmvillage 
Absoftly Fmlies, Bbtwinkling in the shadow of the 
Ebmountain.
EbWhen the twilight's muffled drums play Abtattoos 
to the skies, and the Bbheavens close their eyes,
I'll be Ebgone.
#2.
EbWhen the fisher folds his net, Fmmakes his craft 
secure, and Bbgazes to the west for signs of Ebweather.
EbWhen he thinks of his table set, his Abchildren at 
the door, as he Bbplods along the shore..I'll be Ebgone.
INTERLUDE:  Eb   Bb  Eb  
#3.
EbWhen the merchant draws his shade, Fmcounts the day’s 
receipts, and Bbsmiles, recalling bits of idle Ebgossip.
EbWhen the entries all are made in the Abledger's tidy 
sheets as he Bbshuffles down the streets..I'll be Ebgone.
OUTRO:
EbTis pretty, but is chains, and FmI must be free.
So, Bbfare-thee-well, ye full, contented Ebfellow.
EbNo quiet life for me, no Abhome, no family, Bbnow, and 
endlessly..I'll be Ebgone.
A sixties smash from Kraziekhat.
