Pretty sure the chords are right... if not, tell me and I'll make ammends
Positive the lyrics are right, other tabs of this song have lyrics that don't make sense
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
I�m not surprised
Em
This room is cold
C
It�s empty too
D
It�s stinks of loss
Em D
I sat with Dan and drank some beer
C G
We hadn�t spoken since last year
Em D
I took his hand, led him upstairs
C G
Silently drew his body near
Em D
I couldn�t see, missed you so much
C G
Missed you so much I had to fuck
Em D
Between your sheets all childhood clean
C G
The pillows painted with your dreams
Em D
I didn�t 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
I�ll bring the city here to you
Em D
I�ll pack the river and the clock
C G
Wrap it into a picnic box
Em G
With golden bows and crystal mugs
C D
My dancing heels will feel the mud
Em G
We�ll disco boogie until the dawn
C D
I�ll teach this village how to mourn
(Ahhs)
Em D C G (I think?)
G
My living room
Em
In future time
C
You�re just a face
D
Above my fire
G
A funeral sound
Em
A distant chime
C
I�ll think of this
D
And I will cry
Em G
Perhaps I�ll 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
There�ll come a day
G
That I don�t grieve
Em
Until the time
D
My body leaves
C
I will regret
G
That you don�t breath
