C
Farewell to Ed
Am
For Ed is dead
F
The careless boy
G
Laid to rest
C
A velvet floor
Am
To place his head
F
An empty bed
G
A wooden chest
Am G
Still beautiful in death
F C
The moisture fogs my breath
Am G
Two hundred lowered eyes
F C
A hundred mute goodbyes
Am C G
I never thought your threats would come good
Am C G
You never did what you said you would
C
Your mum and dad
Am
They look so old
F
All huddled up
G
In inky cloaks
C
I’m not surprised
Am
This room is cold
F
It’s empty too
G
It’s stinks of loss
Am G
I sat with Dan and drank some beer
F C
We hadn’t spoken since last year
Am G
I took his hand, led him upstairs
F C
Silently drew his body near
Am G
I couldn’t see, missed you so much
F C
Missed you so large I had to fuck
Am G
Between your sheets all childhood clean
F C
The pillows painted with your dreams
Am C G
I didn’t want to stop and think
Am C G
I should’ve said a thousand things
G
Yeh, but hey
C
Like we agreed
Am
I will be brave
F
I will pour whisky
G
On your grave
C
Smoke cigarettes
Am
Amongst the stones
F
Sprinkle champagne
G
Upon your bones
Am G
If burial restricts your view
F C
I’ll bring the city here to you
Am G
I’ll pack the river and the clock
F C
Wrap it into a picnic box
Am
With golden bulbs
G
And crystal mugs
F
My dancing heels
C
Will feel the mud
Am G
We’ll disco boogie until the dawn
F C
I’ll teach this village how to mourn
C
My living room
Am
In future times
F
You’re just a face
G
Above my fire
C
A funeral sound
Am
A distant chime
F
I’ll think of this
G
And I will cry
Am G
Perhaps I’ll drop my task
F C
The sound of shattered glass
Am G
Thought I'd forgot at last
F C
Some things just never pass
Am
Easy to say
G
Hard to believe
F
There’ll come a day
C
That I don’t grieve
Am
Until the time
G
My body leaves
F
I will regret
C
That you don’t breath

clockworkorange is right, if you listen to the XFM radio recording of the song you can tell its dan

I heard "dad" the first time as well. Pretty sure it's "Dan". Otherwise this song is about incest

Still one of my favorite songs to this day - thanks so much for posting! I think a couple of the lyrics are wrong but the chords sound spot on. I think "Missed you so large I had to fuck" should be "Missed you so much I had to fuck" and I'm pretty sure "I futile sound" is "A funeral sound." Thanks again and I hope this song brings comfort to others who've lost friends to suicide as it has for me.
