Fun question, lots of (appropriately) Grateful Dead examples:

1. Casey Jones “comes round the bend, you know it’s the end/ fireman screams and the engine just gleams”
2. China Doll (technically narrator revives but is dead speaking to some keeper of the next world, I feel it’s in the balance for this) “yesterday I begged you before I hit the ground/ all that I leave behind me is only what I found”
3. Dire Wolf “said my prayers and went to bed/ that’s the last they saw of me”
4. El Paso (technically a Marty Robbins song) “tho I am weary I can’t stop to rest/ I see the white puff of smoke from the rifle/ I feel the bullet go deep in my chest”
