G D2 D Em7 C9
There' s a funeral procession on the highway,
G D2 D Em7 C9
Traffic screeches to a halt.
G D2 D Em7 C9
There' s people searching for a better way,
G D2 D Em7 C9
To live their lives.

Johnny lived a good life, you' ll hear them say
G D2 D Em7 C9
As tears of sadness soak the ground.
G D2 D Em7 C9
The reaper crept in, took his breath away,
G D2 D Em7 C9
In the middle of the night.

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

G D2 D Em7 C9
So please don' t come to me on my dying day,
G D2 D Em7 C9
Just let me go in peace.
G D2 D Em7 C9
With all the things that I forgot to say,
G D2 D Em7 C9
Still racing through my mind.
G D2 D Em7 C9
And don' t you bury me six feet underground,
G D2 D Em7 C9
Just burn my body in a box.
G D2 D Em7 C9
And let my ashes blow with the wind,
G D2 D Em7 C9
Out into the night..... sky.
