[Verse 1]
G          D       Dsus2             Em     Em7
 There's a funeral procession on the highway
Cadd9 G        D        Dsus2     Em  Em7
       Traffic screeches     to a halt
Cadd9
G               D        Dsus2      Em        Em7
 There's people searching     for a better way
Cadd9              G     D Dsus2   Em Em7
     To live their lives,       oh-oh
Cadd9
G        D           Dsus2             Em           Em7
 "Johnny lived a good     life" you'll hear them say
Cadd9
G            D      Dsus2         Em    Em7
 As tears of sadness     soak the ground
Cadd9
G           D       Dsus2         Em         Em7
 The reaper crept in     took his breath away
Cadd9                     G
     In the middle of the night,
D Dsus2   Em Em7 Cadd9
       oh-oh

[Chorus]
Em                      Em7       C/G
  We celebrate the lives   of the dead
                       G                            Dsus/F# Dsus/A
It's like a man's best party only happens when he dies
Em                      Em7       C/G
  We gather round to pay   our respects
            G                                    Dsus/F# Dsus/A
While their souls are still searching for the light
                     G
Searching for the light

[Verse 2]
G                D       Dsus2      Em       Em7
 So please don't come to me   on my dying day
Cadd9 G            D Dsus2   Em   Em7
       Just let me go     in peace
Cadd9
G             D      Dsus2     Em        Em7
 With all the things that I forgot to say
Cadd9                  G    D Dsus2   Em Em7
     Racing through my mind,       oh-oh
Cadd9
G              D    Dsus2         Em         Em7
 And don't you bury me   six-feet underground
Cadd9 G             D   Dsus2     Em Em7
       Just burn my body     in a box
Cadd9
G           D    Dsus2     Em           Em7
 And let my ashes     blow with the wind
Cadd9             G    D Dsus2   Em Em7 Cadd9
     Out into the night       sky

[Chorus]
Em                      Em7       C/G
  We celebrate the lives   of the dead
                       G                            Dsus/F#
It's like a man's best party only happens when he dies
Em                      Em7       C/G
  We gather round to pay   our respects
            G                                    Dsus/F#
While their souls are still searching for the light
                     G
Searching for the light

G/B A7sus     Em
         oh-oh
