You can probably narrow down the date by searching the civil registration index for his death-

You left chatterbox before I could say, UHF have 2 William Graham deaths in Shankhill area in timescale, 1 in 1920, 1 in 1923.

Have you tried the new online Belfast cemeteries website? it includes City Cemetery:
http://www.belfastcity.gov.uk/burialrecords/
Burial records list residence and dates of death and burial, etc. With a common name such as William Graham I suggest you search year by year to avoid getting too many results.

It is the Belfast City Council website, the link to the cemetery burial records has been provided by aghadowey at reply #5 above, this is the particular result that mitty mentioned:
