At My Funeral - Crash Test Dummies
transcribed by Stefano Serafin, barleycorn@infinito.it
I found a wrong version of this song in the archive, so
I give my own. This is transcribed from a bootleg
recording made when CTD came to Italy some years ago, so
it might be a bit different from the original.

I'm still young, but I know my days are numbered
CGEmD
1 2 3 4 5 6 7 and so on
GCGD
But a time will come when these numbers have all ended
CGEmD
And all I've ever seen will be forgotten
CG
Won't you come
CGDEmD
To my funeral when my days are done
CG
Life's not long
CGDEmCD
And so I hope when I am finally dead and gone that you'll gather round
CDG
As I am lowered into the ground
GCED
When my coffin is sealed and I'm safely six feet under
Perhaps my friends will see fit then to judge me
When they pause to consider all my blunders
I hope they won't be too quick to begrudge me
Won't you come
To my funeral when my days are done
Life's not long
And so I hope when I am finally dead and gone that you'll gather round
As I am lowered into the ground
GCEDCGAmG/B
If I should die before I wake up
CGAmG/B
I pray that the lord my soul will take but
EmDCGAmD
My body, my body, that's your job
I can't be sure where I'm headed after death
To heaven to hell or beyond to the great vast
But if I can I would like to meet my maker
There's one or two things I'd sure like to ask
Won't you come
To my funeral when my days are done
Life's not long
And so I hope when I am finally dead and gone that you'll gather round
As I am lowered into the ground
