Chords: Cmaj,, G,, D), Em7, Em, Cmaj, G, Dsus4, D, Cadd9
More chords by City And Colour
Genre: indie, folk, rock
For the chorus strum pattern, let the playback play through the pattern twice
for the 4 chords in each chorus
section (so 32 strums total across 4 chords (Em, Cmaj, G, D)
Right after you strum Dsus4 twice (down, up) you switch to D and same with
Em7 to Em
Also, I like to strum an open up-down right before the Cmaj to give it more
fill.
Cmaj

[Verse]
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
There's a funeral procession on the highway,
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
Traffic screeches to a halt.
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
There's people searching for a better way,
G Dsus4 D Em7 Cadd9
To live their lives.
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
Johnny lived a good life, you'll hear them say
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
As tears of sadness soak the ground.
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
The reaper crept in, took his breath away,
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
In the middle of the night.
[Chorus]
Em Cmaj
We celebrate the lives of the dead,
G D
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.
Em Cmaj
We gather 'round to pay our respects,
G D
While their souls are still searching for the light,
D
Searching for the light.
[Verse]
G Dsus4 D Em7 Em Cmaj
So please don't come to me on my dying day,
