Dm - F - C - Dm - C - Dm - G - Dm
Bridge Bit
F - C - G - Dm - F - C - Bm - A


Dm                     F
I got dead man's rod dead man's reel
C                        Dm
Dead man's tuxedo with a lived in feel
C                        Dm
Dead man's desk and a dead man's chair
G                                    Dm
No I ain't dead yet, but I'm getting there

Dm                            F
From a dead man's closet I got a dead man's belt
C
A pair of bedroom slippers
Dm
Worn out was how they felt
C                        Dm
And an old tweed jacket with patched elbows
G                                   Dm
Dress rehearsal in a dead man's clothes

F                           C
Yeah I walked a mile in a dead man's shoes
G                                  Dm
Paid off a dead man's debts, and all his union dues
F                                    C
Slept with a dead man's widow, took in a dead man's kid
Bm                     A
Whatever I could was all I did.

Dm - F - C - Dm - C - Dm - G - Dm (Instrumental)

Dm                                F
I wore a dead man's pants, with a  dead man's shirt
C                                Dm
tried all of it on, hell it couldn't hurt
C                                Dm
Clothes make the man, so it's been said
G                                                Dm
But a man sports a shroud when he's buried and he's dead

Dm                                F
Tried a dead man's hat on and it hurt my head
C                                    Dm
Replayed an outgoing message, the last words he said
C                               Dm
I got a dead man's watch ain't no big crime
G                                      Dm
I ain't dead yet, I got a little more time

F                                C
I read a dead man's will, cashed a dead man's cheque
G                                    Dm
Tied a dead man's neck tie round my neck
F                                   C
I wrecked a dead man's car, I sank a dead man's boat
Bm                                 A
I said a dead man's pray another dead man wrote

Dm                                F
Played a dead man's guitar, sang a dead man's song
C                                    Dm
I guess you'll starting to wonder how long will this go on
C                                    Dm
It's almost over, when its sung done and said
G                                   Dm
I'll sleep dream and die in a dead man's bed
