   Here is the tale.   It's spoken word for word.
Em            G               F#
   It may be abominable, but, yes, it must be heard
Bm                     A
   Nauseating at first.   You can expect the worst.
Em            G             F#
   So listen closely as the plot unfolds

G           Bm               G           F#
   I might stretch the truth.   Maybe a little lie.
G              Bm               A
   There was a boy named Brad.  He played trumpet and he died.
G                Bm             G                F#
   Too young for him to cease.  Why?  We haven't got a clue.
G              Bm        A
   It's on the Internet, so then it must be true.

D     Em     Bm       A    G             Bm        A
The untimely death of Brad.   How sad it must have been.
D      Em      Bm    A     G           Bm         A   F#
If you see him any - where.   Remember to console h - im.

Bm                 A
   I curse the day  I ever met the boy.
Em                   G               F#
   Only the good die young, they say.
       Bm                               A
   The details of his death are vague.  Unbelievable it seems
Em           G           F#
   as if his passing was only a dream.

G          Bm    G       F#
   Catastrophe,    calamity,
G               Bm       A
   What will we tell his mother now?
G          Bm    G          F#
   Cataclysmic,    a tragic mishap,
G         Bm               A                F#
   I just heard that their band is breaking up.

G             Bm      G                 F#
   I hear his trumpet,  his voice rings in my ears,
G               Bm         A
   It sometimes seems he's standing very near.
G            Bm               G            F#
   I don't believe in ghosts.   I've never seen one,
G                Bm              A
   but isn't the trumpet playing haunting on this album?

D     Em     Bm       A    G             Bm        A
The untimely death of Brad.   How sad it must have been.
D      Em      Bm    A     G           Bm         A   F#
If you see him any - where.   Remember to console h - im.

C    G                 A
A    day that lives in infamy.
C    G           A
In   horror we behold:
C    G
His  passing,
D    A
his  memory,
C          F#            B
   but the truth must be told.
