Cool Obituary

                  A            D
He was just about 90, he lived a long life
      G       A                     D
A bad hip and arthritis kept him up every night
                                     G
So he took to a mountain on Saturday morn
          Bm            A       G       D        D
Knew that this was the day that he'd be reborn
        Bm         A                 D
He was trackin' a grizzly, there was sign everywhere
         Bm            A              D
Knew he didn't stand a chance but he didn't seem to care
       Bm        A           D        G
He was gonna go down in one hell of a fight
      Bm        A    G                 D
So he lit a cigar and gathered his might

          G             D           A
When that bear stood up out of the cave he was in
     G             D                  A
Most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned
        G          D            A               Bm
Got off one single shot, man it must have been scary
      G           D          A      D
He's gone but he left a cool obituary

          Bm         A               D
All they found was a billfold and an old Stetson hat
Bm        A           D
Half a cigar and a rocky mountain map
     Bm     A         D         G
His .50 cal Hawken he took everywhere
     Bm           A             G          D
Even to his last fight with an old grizzly bear

          G             D           A
When that bear stood up out of the cave he was in
     G             D                  A
Most men would hightail but he stood there and grinned
        G          D            A               Bm
Got off one single shot, man it must have been scary

             G            A            D
They found a note in his jacket tossed off to the side
         Bm              A                  D
Said his best friend was killed when he was 75
      Bm          A                 G           Bm
By a dark grizzly bear that weighed six hundred pounds

The same one that lay dead next to him on the ground

          G             D           A
When that bear stood up out of the cave he was in
