D7


[Verse 1]
              D7                             G                          D7
A man knocked upon the door, said "Don't you know you're gonna die some day"
                                  A7
I've got a plan for you, man, for when you pass away.
      D7                        G             D7
We'll give to your mother, your kids and your wife
                              C7           D7
And all you have to give in return is your life.


[Chorus]
     G                             D7
Take out some insurance, insurance today,
                       C7           D7
For tomorrow will come and take us away.


[Verse 2]
                A7         G       D7
Two men were gambling in a parlour one night
                                            A7
When a woman walked in with her dress up so tight.

    G                                                     D7
She asked the two gentlemen would they fight for her name.
                                  C7            D7
They got up and shot her and went back to their game.


[Chorus]
     G                             D7
Take out some insurance, insurance today,
                       C7           D7
For tomorrow will come and take us away.

[Verse 3]
D7                     A7        G       D7
This aint no sad song, don't cry in your beer,
                                      A7
for one day will come and we won't be here.
G                              D7
Somebody else will take up our game,
                C7           D7
Different place,   different name.


[Chorus]
     G                             D7
Take out some insurance, insurance today,
                       C7           D7
For tomorrow will come and take us away.
