Tom: A

F#m E D A

F#m E D D/C# A

[Verse]

A
Can I move to California and keep my head held high
A
These bipolar East Coast forecasts leave me fried
           E                       F#m      D    
And I got lonesome there since the day she died
         E                      F#m       D
I never been too good at saying long goodbyes
             E                       F#m       G
So write me one good song and dry my sisters’ eyes
     D          E             A
And bury me in Philly when I die

[Chorus]

     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me
     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me, yeah

[Verse]

      A
If I delete all my profiles can I make you come
A
A digital golden calf at first it seemed like fun
             E                   F#m             D
But it gets lonesome there and I could use some sun
          E                        F#m      D
All the clicks and likes feel like hit and runs
             E                        F#m    G
I’m turning off my phone, I’m turning in my gun
         D                          E             
You can bury me in Philly when I’m done

[Chorus]

     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me
     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me
        F#m     E             D D/C#    A
Give my ’65 to Tim and dry my sisters’ eyes
    F#m     E             D D/C#    A
And bury me in Philly when I die

[Solo]

[Bridge]

         Bm                D
Let the ground beneath my feet
A                    E
Fail if it wants to now
            F#m
You’ve got dancing shoes 
          D                    A                  E
I’ve got blues to lose and I want you to show me how
     D            G    D  E
I’m ready for it now

[Verse]

       A
I can show you that I love you if you’ll let me in
A
I don’t need a savior if I don’t believe in sin
             E            F#m       D
But it gets lonesome here out on a limb
             E                      F#m      D
I’m singing ragged songs and howling broken hymns
          E             F#m    G
So come on Golden State let me in
          D                        E
They can bury me in Philly in the end
       F#m E D D/C# A
In the end
       F#m E D D/C# A
In the end

[Chorus]

     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me
     F#m E    D  D/C#  A
Bury me, yeah
        F#m     E             D D/C#    A
Give my ’65 to Tim and dry my sisters’ eyes
    F#m     E             D D/C#    A
And bury me in Philly when I die
        G                     D D/C#    A
Give my ’65 to Tim and dry my sisters’ eyes
    F#m     E             D D/C#    A
And bury me in Philly when I die
