Verse:
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
There's a funeral procession on the highway,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Traffic screeches to a halt.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
There's people searching for a better way,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
To live their lives.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Johnny lived a good life, you'll hear them say
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
As tears of sadness soak the ground.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
The reaper crept in, took his breath away,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
In the middle of the night.



[Chorus:]
Em Em C C
We celebrate the lives of the dead,
G G D/F D/F
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.
Em Em C C
We gather 'round to pay our respects,
G G D/F D/F
While their souls are still searching for the light,
(BACK TO VERSE CHORDS)
Searching for the light.



Verse:
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
So please don't come to me on my dying day,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Just let me go in peace.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
With all the things that I forgot to say,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Still racing through my mind.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
And don't you bury me six feet under ground,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Just burn my body in a box.
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
And let my ashes blow with the wind,
G G Dsus Dsus D D Em7 Em7 Cadd9 Cadd9
Out into the night.... sky.



Chorus:
Em Em C C
We celebrate the lives of the dead,
G G D/F D/F
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.
Em Em C C
We gather 'round to pay our respects,
G G D/F D/F
While their souls are still searching for the light,
(BACK TO VERSE CHORDS)
Searching for the light.


The End, simple.
