Oingo Boingo - Dead Man's Party

      Tuning: Half-step down

[Verse]
Em
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go
Em
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder 
Em
I'm all dressed up with nowhere to go 
Em
Walkin' with a dead man over my shoulder

[Instrumental]
Em, D
Em, D
Em, D
Em, D

[Verse]
Em
Waiting for an invitation to arrive
Em
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive 
Em
Waiting for an invitation to arrive 
Em
Goin' to a party where no one's still alive

[Chorus]
Em                         D
I was struck by lightning 
Em                         D
Walkin' down the street 
                                  D         Em                          
I was hit by something last night in my sleep 
Em                         D
It's a dead man's party 
Em                         D
Who could ask for more 
                                D               Em
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door 
            A             B7
Leave your body and soul at the door
C          Em        D    Em
(Don't run away it's only me) 

[Verse]
Em
All dressed up with nowhere to go 
Em
Walkin' with a dead man (walkin' with a dead man)
Em
Waitin' for an invitation to arrive 
Em
With a dead man (dead Man)
Em
Got my best suit and my tie 
Em
Shiny silver dollar on either eye 
Em
I hear the chauffeur comin' to my door 
Em
Says there's room for maybe just one more

[Chorus]
Em                         D
I was struck by lightning 
Em                         D
Walkin' down the street 
                                  D         Em                          
I was hit by something last night in my sleep 
Em                         D
It's a dead man's party 
Em                         D
Who could ask for more 
                                D               Em
Everybody's comin', leave your body at the door 
            A         B7    Em
Leave your body and soul at the door
C          Em        D    Em
(Don't run away it's only me) 

[Outro]
C         Em        D    Em
Don't run away it's only me 
C         Em        D    Em
Don't be afraid of what you can't see 
C         Em        D    Em
Don't run away it's only me
