These are the lyrics he wants engraved on his tombstone, Opening lines from bird on a wire.

The opening lines Kristofferson requested serve as his epitaph are as follows. Like a bird on the wire, like a drunk in a midnight choir, I have tried in my way to be free.

I saw that live. It was amazing.

And if the concert hadn't gotten postponed Friday, he wouldn't have gotten to do it as Kristofferson died Saturday.
