• Song:

    Thats Death

  • Artist:

    Eric Idle

I arranged this a couple of years ago based on the submission by ltm_1988 but 
never got around to uploading it. I know I didn't get all of the chords 100% true 
to the original, but it's definitely playable!

You can play the key change bridge pretty much however you like, but this is how we did it:

| G7    Bb    B  C        | A7
| 1 and 2 and 3 and 4 and | 1

           C                   Am
There's a place you're always welcome
          Dm            G7
That's as nice as it can be
C             Bm7/A      Am
Everyone can get in
             G7   A7   Bb  G7/B
'Cause it's abso--lu--tely free!

        C
That's death
                   Dm    Dm/C#    Dm
No need to take a breath
                    C
Just lay around all day

With not a single bill to pay
G7
Hooray!

        C
That's death
                      Dm    Dm/C#    Dm
No more sicknesses or flu

If you've lived beyond your means

You can die beyond them too

Why not simply join them

On the other side?

        C
That's death
                          Dm    Dm/C#    Dm
Say farewell to all your bills
                 C
Rip up all your wills
Am7                Dm7
And pop your final pills
G7
Amen!

        C
That's death
                 Dm    Dm/C#    Dm
It's a date with fate

If you're not feeling great

Then it's the best way to lose weight

Mate

Nothing here to hurt you

No one's here to nag
F         
Come die with me
                  G7  Bb  B C   A7
If your life's a drag!

        D
That's death
                     Em    Em/D#    Em
The wealthy and well-bred
                 D
All of them are here
Bm7                        Em7      A7
And they're all completely dead

        D
That's death
                           Em    Em/D#    Em
No more headaches, no more pain
                       D
Of the millions who've died
Bm7                     Em7      A7
No one came back to complain!

G                 G#m-5
You can't take it with you
D                          B7
You can't keep what you've got
Bm                   A7
So why not just lay back
           D5      A7     
And simply rot?
            D5      A7 
Just simply rot
                  D5      A7
It's so cool it's hot
N/C             Dm7
That's death!
