On the Cnature of Gour afterDlives
But in Gcase there's no Cbeer there, we'll have one more Ground
Oh, Deveryone Gdies

Now, your Gtime may be short or your time may be long
DWho dies? GEveryone Cdies
But it's Ggoing to happen as Csure as you're Gborn
DOh, everyone Gdies
CFriends and reGlations and Dall we hold Gdear
Will one Cday pass to Gthe other Dside
So we'd Gbetter emCbrace them as long as they're Ghere
Oh, Deveryone Gdies

A nephew once asked me when he was quite young

D G C

Who dies? I said, "Everyone dies"

G C G

No use denying it, one day you're done

D G

Oh, everyone dies

C G D G

Princes and paupers there's no one immune

Who dies? Everyone dies

G C G

We suspect that we're more than mere mortal remains

D G

Oh, everyone dies

C G D G

Wise men and prophets they've all had their say

C G D

On the nature of our afterlives

G C G

But in case there's no beer there, we'll have one more round

Oh, everyone dies

Now, your time may be short or your time may be long

But it's going to happen as sure as you're born

Oh, everyone dies

C G D G

Friends and relations and all we hold dear
