Eric Douglas - Im Not Dead Chords

[Intro]
G       G       G       G
 
[Verse 1]
G                           C          G
I woke up this morning, and what to my surprise
G                             A          D
I opened up the paper just to read of my demise
G                                   C             G
There it was in bold-faced type, my body had been found
G                    D                   C      D   G
Come to think of it, I have been feeling just a bit run-down
 
[Chorus 1]
            C
But I'm not dead
           G     D/F# Em
No I'm not quite gone yet
G
Don't trust everything you hear
                        D
And half of what you've read
           C
'Cause I'm alive
        G  D/F# Em
And I'm feeling fine
      G                     D            G
And I don't think that I'll go before my time
 
[Verse 2]
G                                      C           G
My mother called to sympathize with my now-widowed wife
G                                       A               D
And tell her that she'd try to help her get on with her life
G                                  C            G
When she heard the news that I was living after all
G                         D                   C        D     G
she said thank goodness - now please have him give his mom a call
 
[Chorus 2]
            C
But I'm not dead
           G     D/F# Em
No I'm not quite gone yet
G
Wouldn't I be something
                             D
With a hole right through my head
           C
'Cause I'm alive
        G  D/F# Em
And I'm feeling fine
      G                     D            G
And I don't think that I'll go before my time

C       G       D       D
C       G       D       G

[Verse 3]
G                               C               G
I've been living carefully, and try to watch my back
G                               A            D
Ever since that headline nearly gave me cardiac
G                                  C                 G
The irony would be too much, don't want to take that chance
G                       D                C        D    G
And I don't want people saying that they heard it in advance
 
[Chorus 3]
            C
But I'm not dead
           G     D/F# Em
No I'm not quite gone yet
G
The mafia, they tracked me down
                      D
And pumped me full of lead
         C
But I'm alive
        G  D/F# Em
And I'm feeling fine
      G                     D            G
And I don't think that I'll go before my time
 
[Chorus 4]
           C
No I'm not dead
           G     D/F# Em
No I'm not quite gone yet
G
Don't trust everything you hear
                        D
And half of what you've read
           C
'Cause I'm alive
        G  D/F# Em
And I'm feeling fine
      G                     D            G
And I don't think that I'll go before my time
      G                     D            G
And I don't think that I'll go before my time
