[Cm] When your life is over
I [G7/D] won't be sad or blue
[G] I'll put on my fancy hat
[Cm] Lie down next to [G] you
I'll [Cm] kiss you once for life
I'll [G7/D] kiss you twice for death
[G] Hold you close for comfort
[Cm] Wearing my best [G] dress
You [Fm] look so angry [D7] when you sleep
Your [G] face a troubled [Cm] [Cm7] frown
So [Fm] I will smooth your [Cm] furrowed brow
As I [G] lay you in the ground
I'll [Cm] kiss you once for life
I'll [G7/D] kiss you twice for death
[G] Hold you close for comfort
[Cm] Wearing my best [G] dress
And [Cm] as the mourners pass me
[D7] I will smile and wave
[G7] Thank them for their sympathy
And [Cm] tell them I'll be [G] brave
But [Fm] once the wake is [D7] over
And I'm [G] drunk and feeling [Cm] [C7] fine
I'll [Fm] go out there and [Cm] find me
Another [G] boy to pass the time
[Cm] As we're dancing cheek to cheek
And the [D] lights are laid low
I'll [G] request this song for you
Laying [Cm] in the ground [G] below
[Ab] Once the song is [Fm] over
And it's [Cm] time to go to bed
I'll [Ab] leave him on the [Fm] dance floor
And [G] return to you instead [Cm] [D] [G] [Cm]
I'll [Cm] kiss you once for life
I'll [G7/D] kiss you twice for death
[G] Hold you close for comfort
[Cm] Wearing my best [G] [Cm] dress
