[G] [Bm]
[F#] [Bm]
Don't ever [G] laugh as the hearse goes [Bm] by, for you may [F#] be the next to die.
[Bm] They wrap you [G] up in a big white sheet, from your [C#] head down to [Bm] your feet.
They put [G] you in a big black [Bm] box, cover you [F#] up with dirt and rocks.
[Bm] And all goes well [G] for about a week, [C#] and then your coffin [Bm] begins to leak.
And the worms crawl in, [G] the worms [Bm] crawl out, the worms play [F#] pinochle on your snout.
[Bm] They eat your [G] eyes, they eat your [Bm] nose, they eat the jelly [C#] between [Bm] your toes.
[G] A big green [Bm] worm with rolling [F#] eyes, crawls in your stomach [Bm] and out your [G] eyes.
Your stomach [Bm] turns a slimy green, [F#] and pus pours [Bm] out like whipping cream.
[G] You spread it [Bm] on a slice of bread, [F#] and that's what you [Bm] eat when you're dead.
And the worms crawl out, [G] the worms crawl [Bm] in, the worms that crawl [F#] in are lean and [Bm] thin.
The ones that crawl [G] out are fat and [Bm] stout.
Your eyes fall [F#] in and your hair falls [G] out.
Your brain comes [F#] tumbling down your snout.
[Bm] And the worms crawl [G] in, the worms crawl [Bm] out, they crawl all [F#] over your dirty [Bm] snout.
Your chest caves [G] in and your eyes pop out, [Bm] and your brain [F#] turns to sauerkraut.
[G] They invite their [Bm] friends, and their friends [F#] too.
They all come [Bm] down to chew on [G] you, and this is [F#m] what [Bm] it is to [F#] die.
I hope you [Bm] had a nice goodbye.
Did you ever [G] think, as a hearse goes by, [Bm] that you may [C#] be the next to die?
[Bm] And your eyes [G] fall out, and your teeth decay, [B] and that is the end of [F#] a perfect [Bm] day.
