C Am
Dearly beloved
F C
We’re gathered here today
C
To pay our last respects
Am
To the guilt and regret
F C
That had me buried in my shame
C Am
See I was so hopeless
F C
I stopped making plans
C
Convinced my best was behind me
Am
The past would define me
F C
Don’t deserve a second chance
[Pre-Chorus 1]
C Am
Then I met you
F C
And everything changed
C Am
I met you
F C
And I’ll never be the same
[Chorus]
C Am
So I’m throwing a funeral, funeral

The new has come the old is gone

Praise the Lord I’m moving on

C Am
All that was broken
F C
Has now been redeemed
C Am
I was the captive, the sinner, the beggar, the prisoner
F C
But now I’m set free
[Pre-Chorus 2]
C Am
Because of you

My soul has been saved
C Am
Because of you
F C
That old life’s in the grave
