F

pick me up

F

four for each side of the box

A#m                         Gm F

march me to the shiny black car

F

long winding procession of cars

                     A#m

mostly of silver and black

                         Gm                C

gentleman in black suits and the ladies in black dresses and gloves

F

now carry me out to the grave

                              A#m

the spot where I'm paid to be buried

                        Gm

and just before whoever gives the command

   C

to send my coffin down
   
          F                     

I'll jump out of the box and tap dance

     Dm 

from head to bald head

                    Gm   D (low string) Gm 

I'll swoop and I'll spin 

     D (low string) C

I'll rise and dive   down again

                       F  C         Gm
         
I'll laugh like a baby so happy and free

(guitar part)

    Gm              C                  F

and no one will see no one will notice me
