Funeral Blues

i’m impressed nobody has tabbed this song before . maybe , because it’s pretty rare . however , one of the best by johnny and here’s some chords for the start . same chords are played throughout the song with little variations during instrumental part : Intro : Am ( he plays open strings at the end of every second bar , listen to the song you’ll get it ) Verse/Chorus : Am/Am/F/G four people all dressed in black down on their way to a funeral in a four - way smash and my coke is on the dashboard my boys are in the back but you don’t love me yet so i try another tack and the wheels on this car sing the funeral blues . . . and i’m trying to hail a taxi while you’re racing down the hill sixty rpm to tell me that you love me still but it’s unscripted theatre and no - one pays the bill and i can’t get my fill and yes i love you still of course i do just trying to make some sense out of these funeral blues . . . i was so indifferent about what tomorrow would bring i danced a russian ballet through the paparazzi sting and i keep telling you to do your own thing but then you just can’t live without me and the nature of beauty for me is in the part that keeps its independent spirit so i sing it from my heart tonight i feel wonderful with the funeral blues . . . instrumental part : i’m sick and i’m tired i’m trying to force a smile i’m staring at your face from across the cinema aisle and your boyfriend is pretty but he’s got no sense of style so it’s you and me get off to the mountain or you and me make love in florence and let the optimists and cynics fight it out find out about the funeral blues . . . he’ll turn up with a switchblade and an angelic face unscrupulous and ruthless with his fingers on your waist he never said he loved you but he’s offering a taste a taste , my darling of your funeral blues . . . a taste , my darling of your funeral blues . . . oooh your funeral blues . . . that’s that! lyrics found on http : //www . lyricsoncall . com/lyrics/razorlight/Funeral - blues - lyrics
