Tuning: Half-step down
[Verse]
Em
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder
[Instrumental] (x4)
(Em, D)
[Verse]
Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive
Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive
[Chorus]
Em D
I was struck by lightning
Em D
Walkin' down the street
D Em
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
Em D
It's a dead man's party
Em D
Who could ask for more
D Em
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door
A B7
Leave your body and soul at the door
C Em D Em
(Don't run away it's only me)
[Verse]
All dressed up with nowhere to go
Walkin' with a dead man (walkin' with a dead man)
Waitin' for an invitation to arrive
With a dead man (dead Man)
Got my best suit and my tie
Shiny silver dollar on either eye
I hear the chauffeur comin' to my door
Says there's room for maybe just one more
[Chorus]
Em D
I was struck by lightning
Em D
Walkin' down the street
D Em
I was hit by something last night in my sleep
Em D
It's a dead man's party
Em D
Who could ask for more
D Em
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door
A B7
Leave your body and soul at the door
C Em D Em
(Don't run away it's only me)
[Outro]
C Em D Em
Don't run away it's only me
Don't be afraid of what you can't see
Don't run away it's only me
