rockabilly funeral Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[D]

[Verse 1]
There's a [D]black toy truck
with the headlights on
It leads a slow procession
across the graveyard lawn
And [G]look to the back,
there's a coupe to build
With a [D]real cool cat sittin' at the wheel
The old bitch wearing the paper sail
Ah, he up and went
and [A]rocked [D]his life away
His [A]last request, rock, don't cry
I want a [D]rockabilly funeral when I [A]die[D]
[F]Now there's a [D]rockabilly singer
getting buried in his car
That's my one and only
rockin' lonely heart's desire
I want the [G]backseat covered
with the records I made
And this [D]old Telecaster
that I always played
The Cadillacs bolted up to Memphis T
While Carl Perkins ran a rockabilly history
I'll [A]be rockin' up to
heaven on my four -six ply
I wanna [D]rock a Billy funeral when I die
So [G]put a lot of echo on the
preacher's mic
When he [D]tellin' that my
memory's rockin' on
And be sure [G]you get to shakin'
when you start to shout
The [A]cat is really, really, really gone
I want a [D]rockabilly fu[A]neral [D]when I die
A rockabilly funeral when I die
[F]I want a r[D]ockabilly funeral when I die
A rockabilly funeral when I [F]die[E]
[D][G][D][A][F]
[D][Dm][D][G]
[D][A][F][D]
So [G]put a lot of echo on the
preacher's mic
When you're [D]tellin' that my
memory's rockin' on
And be sure [G]you get to shakin'
when you start to shout
The [A]cat is really, really, really gone
I wanna [D]rock a belly funeral when I die
I wanna rock a belly funeral when I die
[F]I wanna r[D]ock a belly funeral when I die
I wanna rock a belly funeral when I die
All right, I want to be buried in my car
with my guitar, I want a Wurlitzer jukebox, sun, 45 RPM records,
casket, gold [A]lame, [D]shroud, blue suede,
chicks with the beehive hairdos
With a B's still in them
Fishnet stockings
With a F's still in them
Cashmere sweaters

[Outro 1]
With a K's still in them
[D]
