These are the chords for Rockabilly Funeral by Bill Kirchen on Piano, Ukulele, Guitar, and Keyboard
[Intro]
E E E E
[Verse 1]
E
Well there\'s a black tow truck
with his headlights on
E
And there\'s a slow procession across
the graveyard lawn
A
And hooked to the back,
there\'s a Coupe DeVille
E
With a real cool cat,
sitting at a wheel
E
The obituaries in the papers say
E
He up and went and rocked
his life away
A7 A
His last request, rock don\'t cry
E N.C.
I want a rockabilly funeral
E
when I die
[Verse 2]
E
Now there\'s a rockabilly singer
getting buried in his car
E
That\'s my one and only rock\'n\'rollin\'
heart\'s desire
A
I want the back seat covered with
the records I made
E
And this old Telecaster that
I always played
E
The Cadillac\'s pointed towards
at the Memphis T
E
Well Carl Perkins made a
rockabilly history
A7
I\'ll be rocking up to
A
heaven on my 4-6 ply
E N.C.
I want a rockabilly funeral
E
when I die

[Chorus]
A
So put a lot of echo on
the preacher\'s mike
E
When you tell him that my
memory\'s rocking on
A
Be sure you get to shaking when
he starts to shout
E N.C.
That cat is
E
really-really-really gone!
E
I want a rockabilly funeral
when I die
E
A rockabilly funeral when I die
E
I want a rockabilly funeral
when I die
E
A rockabilly funeral when I die
