Valley Of The Dead Uke tab by Nicole Dollanganger

G                     C
the ghosts of the palliative care ward 
             G      Em
have been following me 
                      
G                        C
whispering through the clear plastic 
        G               Em
lining over their dead bodies
                                           G                         C
their diapers and their feces still on the
   G       Em
hospital sheets
                                              G                          C
they're dead but they're still up walking 
           G           Em
around and they say to me


[Chorus]

                   G
"death is pretty sweet"
Em             C            G
we're in the valley of the dead
Em        C             G      Em          
cremated bodies in the air and the rotten 
C         G
ones underneath
Em                    C
where we harvest the food we eat
Em                 G              Em             
I'm not scared of death because death's 
         G
all over me

[Verse] 
                       C                      
I've been spending my time hanging out in
 G        Em
hospital wards
                                            
G                      C  
bringing flowers and love letters to my 
  G          Em
quadriplegic baby
G                C                    G         
the ache of his colostomy bag and his
G           Em
blood transfusions
G                     C                                  
his medication makes him so sleepy but he
G                 Em
still whispers to me



[Chorus]

                   G
"death is pretty sweet"
Em             C            G
we're in the valley of the dead
Em              C            G
bodies turn to liquid in the heat,
      Em             C        G
the particles crawl into our pores
     Em                 C
and they soak into our wooden floors
Em                 G              Em             
I'm not scared of death because death's 
         G
all over me
Em                G              Em         
I'm not scared of death because death's 
         G
all over me
