Made his, great grandchildren believe you could live to a hundred &amp; three.

  Am                             Am2
Well, a hundred &amp; three is forever when you're just a little kid

F                     Am
So, Cyrus Jones lived forever.


[Chorus]

Am
Gravedigger

              Am2
When you dig my grave.

                  E
Could you make it shallow.

        Am    Am2      D/G
So that I can feel the rain.

     Am
Gravedigger.

Lost both of her babies, in the second great war.

               Am                                      Am2  
Now you should never have to watch as your only children are lowered in the 


ground.

   F                                 Am
You should, never have to bury your own babies.


[Chorus]
(Add a few extra quickly timed hammers on the Am to go into the bridge.)

Am

When you dig my grave.

So that I can feel the rain.

     Am
Gravedigger.

Ring around the rosie.

Dm            F         C    G A
Pocket full of posey.

Dm       F       C     G A
Ashes to ashes.

Dm     F      C           G
              We all fall down.

[Chorus]

Am
Gravedigger

              Am2
When you dig my grave.

                  E
Could you make it shallow.

So that I can feel the rain.

     Am

Rode his, bike like the devil until the day he died.

             Am                                  Am2               
When he grows up he wants to be Mr. Vertigo on the flying trapeez, oh, well.

F        Am
1940 to 1990---2!

Could you make it shallow.

       Am              Am2        D/G
So that I can feel the rain, I can feel the rain, oh. 

Am                         Am2
Gravedigger, when you dig my grave.

                  E (Let ring)
