Whistle Past The Graveyard

Tom: G

   G     C          G
I always like to be surprised
                                    C       G
I dont want to be told what happens after I die
                             C              G
Death is like a mystery gift wraped up in a box
                       C                     G 
sent from infinity and stamped with question marks.
F                                 G
Everyone's got theres and I've got mine
                              C               G
people shake it, weigh it, discuss it all the time .
                       C              G
I tend to think theres nothing at all in it
                          C            G
But its cool that I could find out any minute


      G                C                G
And I whistle past the graveyard when I walk
                   C                G
Cause I dont wanna hear the corpses talk
                       C           G
I dont wanna hear them grumble and complain
                          C              G
Or disscuss how much they want to eat my brain
   

      F                        G
and I always kind of like to be surprised
                                  C       G
I dont wanna be told what happens after I die.
                C                 G
no I dont wanna hear the courpses talk
                      C                D
so I whistle past the graveyard when I walk
