Sweet and melancholy song. Listen to it to get the strum. My first tab.
Corrections are welcome,enjoy!
Capo I
G G
Some think a fancy funeral will be worth every cent
G C C
But every dime or nickel is money better spent
G G
Better spent on groceries or covering the bills
G C Em G
Instead of little luxuries and unnecessary frills

G G
Lovely yellow daffodils and lacy pillow fringe
G C C
Pretty little angels for everyone to see
G G
Lily of the valley and long black limousines
G C Em G
It's three or four months' salaries just to pay for all those things
G G
So don't but a fancy funeral, it's not worth it in the end
G C C
Goodbyes can still be beautiful without the money that you spend
G G
There's no amount of riches that will bring back what you've lost
G C Em (NC) G
To satisfy your wishes, no way to justify the cost
