  D                                                                                                                                                                                    G  
The man that preached the funeral said it really was a simple way to die
          A                                                                                                                                              D  
He laid down to rest one afternoon and never opened up his eyes
                                                                                                                                                                                     G  
They hired me and Fred and Joe to dig the grave and carry up some chairs
          A                                                                                                                                                              D  
It took us seven hours and i guess we must have drunk a case of beer
verse 2(Johnny)
  D                                                                                                                                                                                 G  
I guess i ought to go and watch them put him down but i don't own a suit
  A                                                                                                                                                                            D  
And anyway when they start talkin' about the fire in hell i get spooked
                                                                                                                                                                                                                G  
So let's just sit here in the truck and act like we don't know him when they pass
     A                                                                                                                                                                         D  
Anyway,when they're all through we got to go to work and mow the grass
verse 3(Waylon then Johnny)
  D                                                                                                                                                                         G  
Here they come and who's that riding in that big old shiney limousine
  A                                                                                                                                                                                              D  
Look at all that chrome i do believe that that's the sharpest thing i've seen
                                                                                                                                                                                     G  
That must belong to his rich uncle someone said he owned a big old farm
     A                                                                                                                                                                                         D  
When they get parked let's mosey down and look it over that won't do no harm
verse 4(Waylon then Johnny) (A tone higher)
  E                                                                                                                                                                      A  
That must be the widow in the car and won't you take a look at that
     B                                                                                                                                                                      E  
That sure is a pretty dress you know some women do look good in black
                                                                                                                                                                                A  
He's not even in the ground and they tell me his truck is up for sale
     B                                                                                                                                                                                    E  
They say she took it pretty hard but you can't tell too much behind a veil
Verse 5(Waylon then Johnny) (A tone higher)
  E                                                                                                                                                 A  
Listen ain't that pretty when a bugler plays a military taps
          B                                                                                                                                                                                    E  
I think when you were in the war they always hide and play a song like that
                                                                                                                                                                                                                  A  
Well here we are and there he goes and i guess that you might call it our bad luck
        B                                                                                                                                                                              E  
I hope he rests in peace but the trouble is the fellow owes us forty bucks
