Dead Mans Party chords

Dead Mans Party

• Em

Just the basic chords here, but it gets the idea across.  Tune a half step down. 

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

(Em  D) x4 

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

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 chords here: 
All dressed up with nowhere to go  
Walkin' with a dead man (walkin' with a dead man) 
Waitin' for an invitation to arrive  
With a dead man (dead Man) 

Got my best suit and my tie  
Shiny silver dollar on either eye  
I hear the chauffeur comin' to my door  
Says there's room for maybe just one more 

Chorus repeats here 

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