G
farewell to ed
Em
for ed is dead
C
the careless boy
D
laid to rest
G
a velvet floor
Em
to place his head
C
an empty bed
D
a wooden chest

Em D
still beautiful in death
C G
the moisture fogs my breath
Em D
two hundred lowered eyes
C G
a hundred mute goodbyes

Em D
i never thought your threats would come good
Em D
you never did what you said you would

G
your mum and dad
Em
they look so old
C
all huddled up
D
in inky cloth
G
im not surprised
Em
this room is cold
C
its empty too
D
its stinks of loss

Em D
i sat with dan and drank some beer
C G
we hadnt spoken since last year
Em D
i took his hand , led him upstairs
C G
silently drew his body near

Em D
i couldnt see , missed you so much
C G
missed you so much i had to fxxk
Em D
between your sheets all childhood clean
C G
the pillows painted with your dreams

Em D
i didnt want to stop and think
Em D
how i should have said a thousand things , yeah but hey

G
like we agreed
Em
i will be brave
C
i will pour whisky
D
on your grave
G
smoke cigarettes
Em
amongst the stones
C
sprinkle champagne
D
upon your bones

Em D
if burial restricts your view
C G
ill bring the city here to you
Em D
ill pack the river and the clock
C G
wrap it into a picnic bo

x Em G
with golden bows and crystal mugs
C D
my dancing heels will feel the mud
Em G
well disco boogie until the dawn
C D
ill teach this village how to mourn

( ahhs )
Em D C G ( i think? )

G
my living room
Em
in future time
C
youre just a face
D
above my fire
G
a funeral sound
Em
a distant chime
C
ill think of this
D
and i will cry

Em G
perhaps ill drop my task
C D
the sound of shattered glass
Em G
thought i forgot at last
C D
some things just never pass

Em
easy to say
D
hard to believe
C
therell come a day
G
that i dont grieve
Em
until the time
D
my body leaves
C
i will regret
G
that you dont breath
