[Refrão]
              D			     A 
I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead 
 				       D  
I'd rather be dead than wet my bed 
                                  A 
I'd rather be dead, I'd rather be dead 
                        D 
I said dead than wet my bed 

                  G               D 
Oh, I'd rather be gone than carry on 
               E7                 A 
I'd rather go away than feel this way 
                  D                             A 
Oh, I'd rather be there where you haven't got a care 
                    					   D                             
And you're better off dead though it doesn't seem fair 

Chorus (with B and E) 

                   A                E  
I'd rather keep my health and dress myself 
                      F#7                    B 
But you're better off dead than sitting on a shelf 
            E                   B 
I'll tie my tie 'till the day I die 
 							  E 
But if I have to be fed then I'd rather be dead 

And when he takes my hand on the very last day 
I will understand because, it's better that way 
Oh! It's nice to be alive when the dream comes true 
You'll be better off dead, it could happen to you 

Chorus (with B and E)
