Body In A Box

City and Colour
 AEF#mD
 There's a funeral procession on the highway,      

 AEF#mD
 Traffic screeches to a halt.                      

 AEF#mD
 There's people searching for a better way,        

 AEF#mD
To live their lives.                              

 AEF#mD
 Johnny lived a good life, you'll hear them say    

 AEF#mD
 As tears of sadness soak the ground.              

 AEF#mD
 The reaper crept in, took his breath away,        

 AEF#mD
In the middle of the night                        

(Chorus:)

 F#mD
 We celebrate the lives of the dead,

 AE
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.

 F#mD
 We gather 'round to pay our respects,

 AE
While their souls are still searching for the light,

Searching for the light. -> back to verse chords

Verse:

 AEF#mD
 So please don't come to me on my dying day,       

 AEF#mD
 Just let me go in peace.                          

 AEF#mD
 With all the things that I forgot to say,         

 AEF#mD
Still racing through my mind.                     

 AEF#mD
 And don't you bury me six feet under ground,      

 AEF#mD
 Just burn my body in a box.                       

 AEF#mD
 And let my ashes blow with the wind,              

 AEF#mD
Out into the night.... sky.                       

Chorus:

 F#mD
 We celebrate the lives of the dead,

 AE
It's like a man's best party, only happens when he dies.

 F#mD
 We gather 'round to pay our respects,

 AE
While their souls are still searching for the light,

Searching for the light. -> back to verse chords then finish
