[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
