Just to piss everyone off, it would need to be Velvet Voyage by Klaus Schulze, and they would have to stand for the full 29 minutes.......ha ha. However seriously it has to be Lucky Man by ELP, thats my life with my wonderful wife and interesting children.

I went to a funeral of a mate whowas just 28 when he died. The funeral
was very formal, but the wake was a 70s rock/prog fest. The happiest,
drunkedness wake I've ever been to.
At mine, I dunno, at the moment the song I share with someone is Watching Over You by ELP.

"At The End Of The Day" - Spock's Beard.
One of my all-time favourite prog songs, and very much "on topic" for a funeral.

Genesis - Mad Man Moon, Afterglow, or For Absent Friends
Billy Joel - And so it Goes 
Pink Floyd - Wish you were Here
Coldplay - In my Place
Porcupine Tree - Collapse the Light Into Earth
Jackson Browne - For a Dancer
Jethro Tull - Elegy
Also, maybe Rain or Whats Within My Heart from Uriah Heep, and Eagles Desperado....i can think of a whole bunch, but i'll stop right there.

Semm che, semm che settà giò in del bar / a cercà l'universo nel bucèer del Cynar
cosmonauti al tavolino cun la sigareta in bùca / che vemm a cambià el mund apena finissum la sambuca

Maybe "Dead Souls" by Nine Inch Nails. or "Them Bones" by Alice In Chains.
Or maybe "Secret World" by Peter Gabriel, off Secret World live.
Or, if I was unhappily in love, "Again" by Archive and "Love Will tear Us Apart" by Joy Division.
Or, "The Effect" by A.C.T. But maybe that's too pretentious? Maybe if there's only one or two people attending the funeral. 
Starless is a great funeral song, too, but I never really figured out what it is about... 
Then again, if my grandma would attain my funeral, I'd play "Good
Beginnings" by Edgar Meyer, to make an okayish last impression on the
poor devil. A great song, too!

In my case there would be a whole concert
For starters (not by order):
The apostle in triumph & To bid you farewell - Opeth
Dogs - Pink Floyd
Travel in Stygian - Iced earth
299 796 Km/s - In the woods
The Dead Flag Blues - GODSPEED YOU BLACK EMPEROR!
My Kantele (acoustic version) - Amorphis
As I die - Paradise lost
Monolith & Wheel - Anekdoten
Afterglow & The musical box - Genesis
Starless and bible black & Fallen angel - King Crimson
Empty Words - Anathema
Trapped in a corner - Death
Sleeping Village & Warning - Black Sabbath
I'm sure I forgot some...
Now to bands names because I haven't decided yet on which songs:
White Willow, Kaipa, Tool, Anglagard, Arena, Atoll, Maxophone, PFM and many more...
I can't wait.....

let's just stay above the moral melee
prefer the sink to the gutter
keep our sand-castle virtues
content to be a doer
as well as a thinker,
prefer lifting our pen
rather than un-sheath our sword

In My Time of Dying by Led Zeppelin!
Or else what Graham Chapman (of Monty Python fame) had at his funeral - "Always Look on the Bright Side of Life"

If I can afford a 24 piece boyschoir they should perform a vocal treatment of Dance Of Eternity. Otherwise it would be something as comforting as Never The Same by Echolyn.
Don't bring me down will be played when the chest descends.
