Jimbo Mathus, Andrew Bird - Three White Horses and a Golden Chain lyrics

Three white horses in a line
There'll be three white horses in line

There'll be three white horses
When you go that way
You're gonna need somebody
When you come to die

Don't dismiss it like it's easy
Tell me what's so easy
About coming to say goodbye?

You're gonna miss her in the evening
You know we'll all be needing
Somebody when you come to die

You can lay me down with a golden chain
Lay me down with a golden chain
You can lay me down with a golden chain
You will need somebody when you come to die

It's not desperation that we're breeding
Just a need we're feeding
About coming to say goodbye
You're gonna miss me in the evening
You know we'll all be needing somebody
When you come to die
