Early in the morning
When the church bells toll
The choir's gonna sing
And the hearse will roll
On down to the graveyard
Where it's cold and gray
And then the sun's gonna shine
Through the shadows
When I go away
Don't want no sorrow
For this old orphan boy
I don't want no crying
Only tears of joy
I'm gonna see my mother
Gonna see my father
And I'll be bound for glory
In the morning
When I go away
I'll be lifted up to the clouds
On the wings of angels
There's only flesh and bones
In the ground
Where my troubles will stay
See that storm over yonder
It's gonna rain all day
But then the sun's gonna shine
Through the shadows
When I go away
(I'm going home - Lift me up)
When I go away
(No more trouble - I'm going home)
(Lift me up - When I go away)
No more crying
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more trials
(I'm going home)
Home to leave my worries in the ground
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more troubles
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more crying
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more trials
(I'm going home)
Home to leave my worries in the graveyard
Home to leave my troubles in the graveyard
Home to leave my trials
And I'll be bound for glory
In the morning
When I go away
All my kin who love me
All my friends who care
Look beyond the dark clouds
We're gonna meet up there
When they lay me in the cold ground
Bow your heads and pray
(Bow your heads and pray)
And I'll be bound for glory
In the morning
When I go away
And then the sun's gonna shine
Through the shadows
When I go away
(I'm going home - Lift me up)
When I go away
(No more trouble - I'm going home)
(Lift me up - When I go away)
No more crying
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more trials
(I'm going home)
Home to leave my worries in the graveyard
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more troubles
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more crying
(I'm going home - Lift me up - When I go away)
No more trials
(I'm going home)
Home to leave my worries in the graveyard
Home to leave my troubles in the graveyard
Home to leave my trials
And I'll be bound for glory
In the morning
When I go away
And then the sun's gonna shine
Through the shadows
When I go away
Ah, when I go away
When I go away
(When I go away)
When I go away
(When I go away)
When I go away

Mark Levon Helm (1940-2012) è stato un musicista, cantante e attore statunitense di fama internazionale. Noto soprattutto per essere stato il batterista e voce principale del leggendario gruppo rock canadese The Band, Helm ha contribuito a plasmare l'identità sonora della musica folk-rock degli anni '60 e '70. Nato in Arkansas, Helm iniziò la sua carriera musicale suonando con diversi gruppi locali prima di unirsi a Bob Dylan nel 1965 come batterista per il suo tour mondiale. Nel 1968, Helm fondò The Band insieme ad altri musicisti talentuosi, tra cui Robbie Robertson e Rick Danko. Il gruppo raggiunse la fama internazionale grazie all'album d'esordio del 1969, *Music from Big Pink*, considerato un capolavoro del folk-rock. Helm si distinse per il suo stile vocale potente e rauco, che conferiva ai brani di The Band una carica emotiva unica. Tra i successi più celebri del gruppo ricordiamo *The Weight*, *Up on Cripple Creek* e *The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down*. Dopo lo scioglimento di The Band nel 1976, Helm continuò la sua carriera musicale come solista, pubblicando diversi album di successo. Nel 2005, Helm ricevette il Grammy Award per l'album *Dirt Farmer*, un progetto che riuniva elementi del country e del bluegrass. Nel corso della sua lunga carriera, Levon Helm ha collaborato con numerosi artisti di fama internazionale, tra cui Eric Clapton, Neil Young e Paul Butterfield. Nel 2012, Helm è morto a causa di un cancro al cancro al cervello all'età di 71 anni. La sua eredità musicale continua ad ispirare generazioni di musicisti.

My favorite group when I was just a teenager were the Fugees, thanks to them a certain curiosity about english language was born in me. I wanted to know and understand the lyrics of their songs, it wasn't enough for me to be carried away exclusively by their beautiful music.
Sweden and the United States are two countries far from each other, thousands of kilometers separate them, the language, culinary and sporting traditions, I don't feel so categorical about the landscapes, not knowing all of America there may be states that have the same reliefs of the country of northern Europe, but on one thing I am sure
