Probate 04:03
You used to love to talk And always run your mouth off Could never get a word in edgewise At least until your heart stopped But now I'd say that it's a horror I would say that I'm in love And I would say goodbye You always used to say "You can never take it with you" And everything you gave away Somehow would feel just like new But now I see that it's all over I can say that it's a shame I would say that we all miss you And nothing here will ever be the same Don't you know that it's a horror? Don't you know that you were loved? So now they'll sell the house And lay your bones to rest In a plot outside of town Remove your wedding ring Pore over every photograph And try to see the theme 'Cause when you pull the thread That unravels one whole lifetime From your deathbed We’ll have to get along With all the bits and pieces Left now that you’re gone I took your name It's just like new I took your name You can never take it with you

about

My grandpa Dan (also named Dan Klee) passed away on March 18th, 2022, one day before his 86th birthday. He was a bit rough around the edges, but he was a good grandpa and I miss him. I wrote this song around the time of his death and I'm releasing it now, close to the 1-year anniversary of his passing. He didn't enjoy this kind of music, but nevertheless, happy birthday, Grandpa Dan.

The elder Dan Klee was a lifelong dog lover, so any streaming or download purchase profits from this song will be donated on my grandpa's behalf to the Oregon Humane Society (www.oregonhumane.org). I'll be posting updates on my website for anyone who cares to follow along: dankleemusic.com/blog
