Verse

A                 E                    F#m       D
There's a funeral procession on the highway,

A              E                       F#m       D
Traffic screeches to a halt.

A                 E                    F#m       D
There's people searching for a better way,

                  A          E         F#m       D
To live their lives.

A                 E                    F#m       D
Johnny lived a good life, you'll hear them say

A                 E                    F#m       D
As tears of sadness soak the ground.

A                 E                    F#m       D
The reaper crept in, took his breath away,

                     A        E        F#m       D
In the middle of the night

[Chorus:]

F#m                               D
We celebrate the lives of the dead,

                       A                           E
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.

F#m                                D
We gather 'round to pay our respects,

            A                                  E
While their souls are still searching for the light,

Verse:

A                 E                    F#m       D
So please don't come to me on my dying day,

A                 E                    F#m       D
Just let me go in peace.

A                 E                    F#m       D
With all the things that I forgot to say,

                       A        E      F#m       D
Still racing through my mind.

A                 E                    F#m       D
And don't you bury me six feet under ground,

A                 E                    F#m       D
Just burn my body in a box.

A                 E                    F#m       D
And let my ashes blow with the wind,


                       A        E      F#m       D
Out into the night.... sky.


Chorus:

F#m                               D
We celebrate the lives of the dead,

                       A                           E
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.

F#m                                D
We gather 'round to pay our respects,

            A                                  E
While their souls are still searching for the light,
