When your life is over

I won't be sad or blue

You look so angry when you sleep

Your face a troubled frown

And as the mourners pass me

Thank them for their sympathy

And tell them I'll be brave

But once the wake is over

And I'm drunk and feeling fine

Another boy to pass the time

And the lights are laid low

I'll request this song for you

Laying in the ground below
Ab               Fm
Once the song is over

And it's time to go to bed
     Ab               Fm
I'll leave him on the dance floor

And return to you instead

Hold you close for comfort
