Dearly Departed Friend

It seems this song is going to be on their new album Remedy (July 1). They 
released this tune on Memorial Day.  I couldn't find the lyrics, so there might be some errors
(its not complete)

The chords are based on the Ketch and Critter recording in Floyd, VA (link below).  
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vzgbXoR-QU4 (Live video)

It is a simple straight forward C,F,G progression, with a rocking base on the C at times. He also
hammers on the b and e strings with his pinky at times to play a little melody (you can hear it
better on the link at   the bottom.

Well Just about then a truck backfired and all the boys they flinched their heads. Yea it choked me

C           F                           G                     G

C                          F                     G             G
Standing by the grave of a dearly departed friend.

C                          F                    G              G

F                   G                    C                     F
Twenty-one guns for twenty-one years and American flags in the wind.

F                          G                 C
Standing by the grave of a dearly departed friend
