        G#m
In the event of something happening to me,
                                           C#7
there is something I would like you all to see.
            F#                            G#m
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew.

Chorus:
C#7       F#      B         F#
Have you seen my wife, Mr. Jones?
                       B           E
Do you know what it's like on the outside?
                                          D#sus4
Don't go talking too loud, you'll cause a land
 D#         G#m
slide, Mr. Jones.

I keep straining my ears to hear a sound
Maybe someone is digging underground
Or have they given up and all gone home to bed
Thinking those who once existed must be dead

Chorus

In the event of something happening to me
There is something I would like you all to see
It's just a photograph of someone that I knew
