[Chorus]
GA dreaded sunny day
So I mGeet you at the cemetery gatCes
CKeats and YeDats are on Emyour sideD C
GA dreaded sunny day
So I Gmeet you at the cemetery gaCtes
CKeats and YeDats are on Emyour sideD C
CWhile DWilde is on Gmine
[Verse 1]
GSo we go inside and weG gravely read the sCtones
All those Cpeople all those liDves
Where are tEmhey noDw?
C With lGoves, with hates
And Gpassions just like mCine
They were Cborn, and then they Dlived
And then they Emdied, D C
Seems so Cunfair, DI want to Gcry
[Verse 2]
You say, Bm"'ere thrice the sun hath door
Salutation to the dGawn"
And you cBmlaim these words as your oGwn
BCut I've well read, haveD heard them said
A hundred Emtimes (maybe less, maybeF more)
If you Gmust write prose and poems
The Gwords you use should be your oCwn
Don't Cplagiarize or tDake "Emon loaDn" C
There's always Gsomeone, somewhere
With a Gbig nose, who knoCws
And Cwho trips you up and laDughs
When you Emfall D C
Who'll Ctrip you up and laDugh
When you fGall
[Bridge]
You say, "Bm'ere long done do doGes did"
WBmords which could only be your oGwn
AnCd then produce the text
From Dwhence was ripped
Some dizzy wEmhore, eighteen hundred and Ffour
[Chorus]
GA dreaded sunny day
So I mGeet you at the cemetery gatCes
CKeats and YeDats are on Emyour sideD C
GA dreaded sunny day
So I Gmeet you at the cemetery gaCtes
CKeats and YeDats are on Emyour sideD C
CWhile DWilde is on Gmine
