VERSE:

      E
I see them rise
   Asus2    E
From beneath the ground
     Asus2       E
Life was lost but now it's found
        Esus2/E5
The ghosts want somethin'

       E
To take their turn
  Asus2      E
To dance around the stone
     Asus2     E
Work the fingers to the bone
      Esus2/E5
Hold on to nothin'

CHORUS:

E      E
Day for the dead,
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living
E      E
Day for the dead
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living

E7 C#m6 Asus2 E

    Asus2 E
We find forgiveness
    Asus2    E
For the wrong we've done
     Asus2    E
Watch the dyin' of the day
    Esus2/E5
Another settin' sun

    Asus2 E
We find redemption
    Asus2   E
In the love we've won
       Asus2 E
Just a little company
     Esus2/E5
Until our work is done

E      E
Day for the dead,
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living
E      E
Day for the dead
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living

Solos

Beatboxing/Acapella

Who says you can't go back?
Who says you can't go back,
Back to where you started from? (are you ready?)
Who says you can't go back? (are you ready?)
Who says you can't go back,
Back to where you started from? (are you ready)
Who says you can't go back? (are you ready?)

The bone falls on the river Styx
The man who makes you dead
Coins lay on his eyes
Just to pay your fare

E
Day for the dead
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living

More soloing

REPEAT INTRO RIFF

E      E
Day for the dead,
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living
E      E
Day for the dead,
  Asus2      E
To dance among the living
