Intro:
D                             G
Bruno, what did you tell that man?
 
He's a clever man, did you know? I bet he works for the government.
D
And I know you know I know I can't control
            G
Thoughts of things I need, and I believe everybody needs some encouragement.
 
Chorus:
  D
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there 
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear
      G
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear.
 

 D
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there 
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear
      G
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear.
 
Verse 1:
D                                  G
Some dull morning, we were wearing sheets,
 
and you whispered, "I think that they know better than me."
D                                      G
See this hand that pushed you into the creek?
 
Sorry, was just fun, and you were laughing,
                      D
we ran right into the street.
                                                  G
And I wrote my name into the fresh-painted yellow line,
                                            D
and you wrote your name right there next to mine.
 
We had to dodge a truck, he almost hit a buck
                    G
I think we had some luck, and for two bucks
 
we bought some bread and fed the grey geese and the ducks.
 
Chorus:
D
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
 
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
   G
My mother says that I will surely go to Hell
 
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
 

D
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
 
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
   G
My mother says that I will surely go to Hell
 
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
 
Verse 2:
D                                      G
Did you know that that boy is an armed man?
                       D                           G
Bearing flowers in two hands, very able to hold me down
 
and   love    me more than anyone.
 

D                                 G
Bruno, what happened to your good sense?
 
I broke down, that man's  good.  I bet he works for the government.
D                                                               G
Did you hear about that mother who broke her daughter's legs in two?
 
Said, "It's too dangerous out there to  walk,  so I had to save you!"
 
Chorus:
  D
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there 
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear
      G
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear.
 

  D
I think it's real unfair that you should put him there 
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear
      G
Where did you find his shoes? A lock of my hair?
 
All we did was kiss, on my grave I swear.
 

D
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
 
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
   G
My mother says that I will surely go to Hell
 
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
 

D
Everyone will come, everyone will yell
 
I'd thank you just the same if you didn't tell
   G
My mother says that I will surely go to Hell
 
Please be a good man, please say you won't tell
 
Outro:
D                                          G
Bruno, did you know that the Greeks in the morning would eat oranges?
               D                                          G
They were firm believers in fruit curing fevers, and  I  agree.
                                     D
That an  orange  warms the stomach.
