[ D ]                                         [ G ] [ D ]
A man knocked upon the door, said "Don't you know you're gonna die some day"
                                 [ A ]
I've got a plan for you, man, for when you pass away.
     [ D ]                       [ G ]           [ D ]
We'll give to your mother, your kids and your wife
                             [ G ]          [ D ]
and all you have to give in return is your life.

[chorus]
    [ G ]
Take out some insurance, insurance today,
   [ D ]                    [ C ]      [ D ]
for tomorrow will come and take us away.

[/chorus]
                           [ G ]            [ D ]
Two men were gambling in ~a something~ one night
                                           [ A ]
when a woman walked in with her dress up so tight.
   [ G ]                                              [ D ]
She asked the two gentlemen would they fight for her name.
                                 [ C ]           [ D ]
They got up and shot her and went back to their game.

[chorus]

[bridge, all on a D chord except for the final C-D like the end of each verse]
                            [ G ]         [ D ]
This aint no sad song, don't cry in your beer,
                                     [ A ]
for one day will come and we won't be here.
[ G ]                           [ D ]
Somebody else will take up our game,
                [ C ]       [ D ]
different place, different name.
