[Verse 1]
D G
Woke up this morning, put on my slippers
D A
Walked in the kitchen and died
D G
And oh what a feeling when my soul went through the ceiling
A D
and on up in to heaven I did rise
G D
When I got there they did say John it happened this-a-way
D A
you slipped upon the floor and hit your head
D G
And all the angels say just before you passed away
D A D
these were the very last words that you said
[Chorus 1]
G D
Please don't bury me down in that cold cold ground
D A
I'd rather have 'em cut me up and pass me all around
D G D
Throw my brains in a hurricane the blind can have my eyes
G D A D
The deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size
[Verse 2]
D G
Give my stomach to Milwaukee if they run out of beer
D E7 A
Put my socks in a cedar box just get 'em out'a here
D G D
Venus de milo can have my arms Look out! I've got your nose
G D A D
Sell my heart to the junk man and give my love to Rose
[Chorus 2]
G D
But, please don't bury me down in that cold cold ground
D A
I'd rather have 'em cut me up and pass me all around
D G D
Throw my brains in a hurricane the blind can have my eyes
G D A D
And the deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size
[Verse 3]
D G
Give my feet to the foot-loose careless fancy free
D E7 A
Give my knees to the needy don't 'cha pull that stuff on me
D G D
Hand me down my walkin' cane, it's a sin to tell a lie
G D A D
Send my mouth way down south and kiss my ass goodbye
[Chorus 3]
G D
But, please don't bury me down in that cold cold ground
D A
I'd rather have 'em cut me up and pass me all around
D G D
Throw my brains in a hurricane the blind can have my eyes
G D A D
The deaf can take both of my ears if they don't mind the size
