Bm
I dig my own graves lately
Bm
I don't need any help
Bm
Just let me sit here quiet
Bm
In here by myself


[Bridge]

A                                D
I don't wanna die but I wanna be buried
Bm                           D   Bm
Leave me at the gates of the cemetery


[Verse 2]

Bm
I've been a zombie lately
Bm
I got nothin' to say
Bm
Always too much talking
Bm
Not enough eating brains


[Bridge]

A                                D
I don't wanna die but I wanna be buried
Bm                           D   Bm
Leave me at the gates of the cemetery


[Refrain]

Bm              A   D   Bm
I'll wait here 'til I'm ready


[Chorus]

Bm                    A
All my life I've been waitin' for you
D
Not waitin' to find out
G         D
Nothing's new
A
It's the same old song
Bm
Just a different tune


Bm                    A
All my life I've been waitin' for you
D
Not waitin' to find out
G         D
Nothing's new
A
It's the same old song
Bm
Just a different tune


[Verse 3]

Bm
Right on, Frankenstein!
Bm
Youth is in the door
Bm
Lazarus push the stone off
Bm
Where's the way back to bed


[Bridge]

A                                D
I don't wanna die but I wanna be buried
Bm                           D   Bm
Leave me at the gates of the cemetery


[Verse 4]

Bm
Chasin' the beast inside me
Bm
He pushes and shoves
Bm
Sensitive thugs need hugs so
Bm
Why do I get no love


[Bridge]

A                                D
I don't wanna die but I wanna be buried
Bm                           D   Bm
Leave me at the gates of the cemetery


[Refrain]

Bm              A   D   Bm
I'll wait here 'til I'm ready


[Chorus]

Bm                    A
All my life I've been waitin' for you
D
Not waitin' to find out
G         D
Nothing's new
A
It's the same old song
Bm
Just a different tune

Bm                    A
All my life I've been waitin' for you
D
Not waitin' to find out
G         D
Nothing's new
A
It's the same old song
Bm
Just a different tune


[Outro]
G         D
Right on, Frankenstein!
C                 A
You don't believe in ghosts
G         D
Lightning strikes the body
C                  A
And threatens life the most
