When I Die

           Dm A7            F     G7
For when I die and when Iʼm ashes
             Gm7 C7     F      A7
And no more songs I can repeat
          Dm A7         F     G7
Whoeverʼs singinʼ at my funeral
           Gm7 C7              F    A7
Had better learn to move their feet

[Verse 1]
           Dm A7            F  G7
Cuz when I die right around 40
            Gm7 C7               F  A7
And when my fuse has reached its end
         Dm A7                F       G7
You best believe weʼll all be drinkinʼ
              Gm7 C7        F
Now donʼt ask why but maybe “when”

[Bridge]
Gm7         C7                Fmaj7    Dm               Gm7            A7               D7
Some people croak it and then everyone chokes on bitter tears "oh lord whyʼd he have to go?"
Gm7        C7                   Fmaj7        Dm
But when I stroll I think weʼll all probably know that I was
Gm7      A7
Due any time I mean you canʼt live that hard for long

[Chorus]

          Dm A7             F      G7
So when I die, and when Iʼm buried
              Gm7 C7        F       A7
Come watch me sink into the ground
           Dm A7              F      G7
Forget the dirt, just drain a bottle
            Gm7 C7             F
And if they ask, just say I've drowned

[Solo]
Dm A7 F G7 Gm7 C7 F A7 x2

[Verse 2]
           Dm A7             F     G7
For when I die and when itʼs over
           Gm7 C7           F       A7
And all my friends are left behind
           Dm A7                 F      G7
I wouldnʼt doubt that theyʼll be jealous
                Gm7 C7            F
Theyʼll have to do more work than I

[Bridge]
Gm7         C7                Fmaj7    Dm               Gm7            A7               D7
Some people croak it and then everyone chokes on bitter tears "oh lord whyʼd he have to go?"
Gm7        C7                   Fmaj7        Dm
But when I stroll I think weʼll all probably know that I was
Gm7      A7
Due any time I mean you canʼt live that hard for long

[Chorus]
          Dm A7            F     G7
So when I die and when Iʼm sober
            Gm7 C7               F    A7
Thereʼll be more stories left to write
           Dm A7           F         G7
Take up my pen, and get to scriblinʼ
              Gm7 C7            F
Puncture your silence kill your fright

[Ending]
A7         Dm
For when I die (for when I die)
A7         Dm
For when I die (for when I die)
A7         Dm
For when I die (for when I die)
A7         Gm7
For when I die (for when I die)

         Gm7
Iʼm only goinʼ over Jordan
              A7   Dm
Iʼm only goin over home
