The Herse Song Uke tab by Rusty Cage

Verse:
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
Don’t ever laugh as a hearse goes by for you may be the next to die, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
They wrap you up in bloody sheets to drop you 6 feet underneath, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
They put you in a pinewood box and cover you up with dirt and rocks,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
It all goes well for about a week, and then your coffin begins to leak,

 
Chorus:
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
The worms play pinochle on your snout, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
They eat your eyes, they eat your nose,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
As you begin to decompose,

Verse: 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
A slimy beetle with demon’s eyes, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
Chews through your stomach and out your sides,
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
Your stomach turns to rancid grease,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
And puss pours out like melted cheese, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
You spread it on a slice of bread, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
And that’s what you’ll eat when you’re dead,

Chorus:
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And the worms crawl out, the worms crawl in,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
The ones that crawl in are lean and thin,
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
The ones that crawl out are fat and stout, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
Your eyes fall in and your hair falls out,

Verse: 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
Your brain turns into maggot pie,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
Your liver starts to liquify,
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And for the living, all is well,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
As you sink further into hell,

 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And the flames rise up to drag you down,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
Into the fire where you will drown, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
Your skin melts off as you descend,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
And Satan tears you limb from limb,
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
Your suffering will never end,

Chorus:
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And the worms crawl in, the worms crawl out,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
They’ll eat your guts and then shit them out, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And when your bones begin to rot,
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
The worms remain, but you do not, 

Verse:
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
So don’t ever laugh as a hearse goes by, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
For someday, you’ll be the one to die, 
           D           Bb                   Gm                     A7
And when Death brings his cold despair, 
     Dm            Bb                Dm                  A7           Dm
Ask yourself, “Will anyone care?”
