Chords with lyrics

F minorFm
When you attend a funeral,
   C7C7
It is sad to think that sooner or'l
   F minorFm         Db7Db7       C7C7  Db7Db7 C7C7
Later those you love will do the same for you.
    F minorFm
And you may have thought it tragic,
    C7C7
Not to mention other adjec-
     F minorFm        G7G7        C7C7
Tives, to think of all the weeping they will do.
(But don't you worry.)

F minorFm
No more ashes, no more sackcloth,
    GbGb
And an arm band made of black cloth
   C7C7             FF
Will some day nevermore adorn a sleeve.
               F7F7
For if the bomb that drops on you
     Bb majorBb          G7G7
Gets your friends and neighbors too,
      C7C7          FF
There'll be nobody left behind to grieve.

C7C7 Gm/D EdimEdim FF          FF+ Bb majorBb
And we will all go together when we go.
         G minorGm       C7C7
What a comforting fact that is to know.
  FF     F7F7
Universal bereavement,
  FF+ Bb majorBb    G minorGm
An inspiring achievement,
   BB    C7C7           FF  Db7Db7
Yes, we will all go together when we go.

GbGb         GbGb+ CbCb
We will all go together when we go.
           AbmAbm     Db7Db7
All suffused with an incandescent glow.
      GbGb     Gb7Gb7
No one will have the endurance
  GbGb+ CbCb      AbmAbm
To collect on his insurance,
    C majorC Db7Db7               GbGb D7D7
Lloyd's of London will be loaded when they go.

G+G            FF
Oh we will all fry together when we fry.
                   E MajorE  Eb MajorEb E MajorE
We'll be French fried potatoes by and by.
      E MajorE
There will be no more misery
     FF
When the world is our rotisserie,
       B7B7            E MajorE
Yes, we will all fry together when we fry.

E MajorE  F#7F#7 B7B7
Down by the old maelstrom,
           G#7G#7   C# minorC#m  C7C7
There'll be a storm before the calm.

Gm/D EdimEdim FF           FF+ Bb majorBb
And we will all bake together when we bake.
          G minorGm       C7C7
There'll be nobody present at the wake.
     FF      F7F7
With complete participation
  FF+  Bb majorBb     G minorGm
In that grand incineration,
  BB  C7C7                FF   Db7Db7
Nearly three billion hunks of well-done steak.

GbGb          GbGb+ CbCb
Oh we will all char together when we char.
          AbmAbm      Db7Db7
And let there be no moaning of the bar.
     GbGb    Gb7Gb7
Just sing out a Te Deum
   GbGb+ CbCb     AbmAbm
When you see that I.C.B.M.,
  C majorC  Db7Db7            GbGb  D7D7
And the party will be come-as-you-are.

G+G             FF
Oh, we will all burn together when we burn.
                      E MajorE  Eb MajorEb E MajorE
There'll be no need to stand and wait your turn.
     E MajorE
When it's time for the fallout
     FF
And Saint Peter calls us all out,
      B7B7            E MajorE   E7E7
We'll just drop our agendas and adjourn.

A minorAm                       D7D7
You will all go directly to your respective Valhallas.
   G minorGm                        C7C7
Go directly, do not pass Go, do not collect two hundred dollahs.

Gm/D EdimEdim FF          FF+ Bb majorBb
And we  will all go together when we go.
           G+G    C7C7
Every Hottentot and every Eskimo.
     FF      F7F7
When the air becomes uranious,
    Bb majorBb     G minorGm
We will all go simultaneous.
   BB C7C7
Yes, we all will go together
    D7D7
When we all go together,
    G minorGm       C7C7      FF
Yes we all will go together when we go.
