[Verse]
     G The first guy I knew who died I can't remember his name 
     Cthe tenth grade started he just never came again
G  all his friends sat around and cried
      D                  for a day or two 

         GYou can say what you want about immortal soul 
      Cwhen that guy died it left a hole 
       Git was my first clue 
      D                         Gthat when they're gone they're gone 

[Chorus]
       CMaybe Jesus beat that rap we're not sure 
       G     maybe you can live forever if your heart is pure 
          D                                   Gor maybe you'll come back some day as a king prawn 

       C                                GMaybe angels come and take you away to heaven or the other way 
    D                                                         Gbut from down here it appears that when they're gone they're gone 

[Verse]
GMe and Stevie Gibson used to walk home from school 
Che used to have this little turn around rule 
       Gif you turn around the one way gotta turn around the other way or
     Dit's bad luck 

   GHe went out rafting on the river 
                 Cthe river went around and the raft went around 
                 G                     Dand his luck got all wound up and he drowned
            Gand he was gone

[Verse]

 GTwo weeks after Dieter died you could call him on the phone 
Cand he would tell you that he's not home
        Gand it gave you an eerie feeling even though you knew
               Dit was just an answering machine 

        G'Cause somewhere deep inside you know 
       Cthat they don't come back when they go 
     G                Dand he had gone and when they're gone 
         Gthey're gone 

[Chorus]

         Cwe were sitting around singing on folding chairs 
     Gwhen I got the feeling
                      Dsomebody wasn't there 

        GWell I counted noses but it came out right
     Cthe doctors said she died that night

[Verse]
   GI looked up death in the dictionary one day 
         Cjust to see what the dictionary had to say 
              Git's the complete and irreversible cessation of
      Dlife functions 

          GWhich is not very poetic but it's precise and clean 
    Cand if you analyze it what that means is
G                 Dwhen they're gone
         Gthey're gone 

[Chorus]
       CMaybe Jesus beat that rap we're not sure 
       G     maybe you can live forever if your heart is pure 
           D                                  Gor maybe you'll come back some day as a king prawn
