[Intro]
G D Em C
[Verse 1]
G
If I die before you,
D
I don't care what you do,
Em
With the biology,
C
That used to be me,
G
Though I hope they don't sap me,
D
For morbid display,
Em
And I hope that you're happy...
C G D Em C
But not right away ay ay ay ay ay ay ay.
[Verse 2]
G
The stuff in my closet,
D
Just jettison all,
Em
The pants are too short,
C
The shoes are too small,
G
The shirts are too big,
D
What can I say?
Em
Time, sloth and cannabis,
C G D Em C
Made me that way ay ay ay ay ay ay ay.
[Interlude]
G D Em C
Ay ay ay ay ay ay ay.
[Verse 3]
D G C
Treat the guitars like the treasures they are,
D G C
They still have secrets to tell,
D G C
They may not know why I had to go,
D
And they've always been loved very well.
[Interlude]
G D Em C
[Verse 4]
G
If I die before you,
D
It might not be all bad,
Em
You can turn down the heat,
C
You can turn up the ads,
G
You can reset the toaster,
D
To maximum roast,
Em
And then butter the cinders,
C G D Em C
You like to call to-oast.
[Verse 5]
G
I will send you a message,
D
If ever I can,
Em
Just to tell you I'm fine,
C
And it's not quite the end,
G
Or I might not be able,
D
I might just be dead,
Em
Or it might really be,
C G D Em C
Hot as they sai-aid aid, ooh, ooh ooh ooh.
[Outro]
G D Em Em7 C
Ooh ooh.
