Intro:
(rest)
It s easy to sleep when you re dead
-7 5b + + (x8989x) (xx6554) (xx3221)
But you re unable to touch your loved ones
-7 5b ° (xx5656)
Give them kisses or see them smile at you
(rest)
It s easy to sleep when you re dead
-7 5b + +
But you give up your whole life s work
-7 5b °
And never can reverse the bad things that you did
While alive you still have hope
That when you die it might be better
(rest)
When you die you are dead
And you know for sure if it s better, if it s better, if it s better
° (xx6764)
I hope it s better
(rest)
It s easy to sleep when you re dead
-7 5b + +
Though you can t feel the warmth of summer
-7 5b °
Smell the flowers of spring, or drink cider in the fall
(rest)
It s easy to sleep when you re dead
-7 5b + +
Though it s too late to say the words
-7 5b °
You wanted them to hear when you didn t have the nerve
You get to spend eternity thinking about your life
(x5657x) (rest)
Think of all the time that is
Cuz eternity is forever, is forever, is forever
C#7b5
What will I do forever?
At this time there is nothing you can change
(xx6767) °
You can only sit and watch and hope they understand
(clear electronic notes in Bm, spring, and possibly guitar bends)
(rest)
It s easy to sleep when you re dead
-7 5b + +
Because there isn t anything else to do but sleep
-7 5b °
I feel sorry for the dead
IfeelsorryforthedeadIfeelso
Hoolah
feel for the dead
