# Intro:
C C | Am Am | Em Em

C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins with hammers and nails
C C Am Am Em Em
He doesn't build ships, he has no use for sails
C C Am Am Em Em
He doesn't make tables, dressers or chairs
C C Am Am Em Em
He can't carve a whistle 'cause he just doesn't care

C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins for the rich and the poor
C C Am Am Em Em
Kings and queens; they've all knocked on his door
C C Am Am Em Em
Beggars and liars, gypsies and thieves
C C Am Am Em Em
They all come to him 'cause he's so eager to please

C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins he makes them all day
C C Am Am Em Em
But it's not just for work and it isn't for play
C C Am Am
He's made one for himself
Em Em
One for me too
C C Am Am Em Em
One of these days he'll make one
C C Am Am Em Em
For you......
C C Am Am Em Em
For you......
C C Am Am Em Em
For you......
C C Am Am Em Em
For you......

C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins for better or worse
C C Am Am Em Em
Some say its a blessing, some say its a curse
C C Am Am Em Em
He fits them together in sunshine or rain
C C Am Am Em Em
Each one is unique, no two are the same
# [ Am Am chord on "nique"]

C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins and I think it's a shame
C C Am Am Em Em
That when each one's been made, he can't see it again
C C Am Am Em Em
He crafts every one with love and with care
C C Am Am Em Em
Then it's thrown in the ground, it just isn't fair


C C Am Am Em Em
My boy builds coffins he makes them all day
C C Am Am Em Em
But it's not just for work and it isn't for play
C C Am Am
He's made one for himself
Em Em
One for me too
C C Am Am Em Em
One of these days he'll make one
# For you.
