[Verse 1]

D                    E                      F#m  
  Its the third of October, you should come over
F#m                             D
Best laid plans are not sober
                  E                          F#m
And maybe not the way we thought we planned
F#m
Both of us will take this hand
D                E                   F#m
For a couple of days then we'll disappear
F#m                                          D
We don't have to talk of where we go from here

Oh, my dearly departed,

Mmm, my dearly departed

[Refrain]

    D
One final shoulder
D                       F#m
Here before they're none
E                    D
And then there were none

[Chorus]

     F#m              A         D
This last call could be all we can do for each other
F#m          A          D
Embrace for a dear old friend
D
Bring wine to bed
     F#m E A       D             F#m
We'll  toast what could have been
E            D
My dearly departed
  F#m E            D
To,   my dearly departed

[Verse 2]

D                   E
I don't know how to mend it
                  F#m
But this chapter ended
F#m                                    D
When all of my plans have depended on you
               E                        F#m
But at least tonight we'll still pretend
F#m                                        D
Hold each other close like its not the end
                       E                              F#m
And you can send me balloons, and we can laugh at the doom
F#m                                               D
We both thought of that doesn't it say something to
   E           F#m
Oh my dearly departed,
  D  E            F#m
Ohh, my dearly departed

[Refrain]

D
One final shoulder
D                   F#m
Here before we're none
  E                 D 
Until (there) are none

[Chorus]

     F#m              A         D
This last call could be all we can do for each other

Embrace for a dear old friend
D
Bring wine to bed
     F#m E A       D             F#m
We'll  toast what could have been
E            D
My dearly departed
  F#m E           D
To   my dearly departed

[Bridge]

      F#m              A
Every masterpiece I'd write again
       E
You'll always be my porcelain
  F#m                     A
I crossed my heart but I stuttered too
   E
So truth or dare was I good to you?
        F#m                A
Haven't had enough of you all to myself
      E
Still right beside you in sickness and health
   F#m         E              D
Forever after you will be my home
                       F#m  E   D
And there's no place like home

[Outro]

D                 E                               F#m
We never sent the cards, they're all still on the table
                                      D
Wanna throw them out but I'm just not able
E            F#m      D
My dearly departed
E               F#m      A      D
   My dearly departed

Toast what could what could have been
D           F#m         A          D
Toast what could what could have been
D                F#m
Dear old friend, 
     A          D
What could have been
D           F#m
Old friend
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m
Toast what could,
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m
Toast what could,
A            D
My dearly departed
D           F#m         A          D
Toast what could what could have been
D
Dear old friend
