Song:

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye to you, my trusted friend.

5 5 5 5 5

We've known each other

5 -5 5 -4 3 3

since we're nine or ten.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

Together we climbed hills and trees.

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

Learned of love and ABC's,

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.

 

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye my friend, it's hard to die,

5 5 5 5 5

when all the birds are

-5 5 -4 3 3

singing in the sky.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

Now that the spring is in the air.

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

Pretty girls are everywhere.

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

Think of me and I'll be there.

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

We had joy, we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the hills that we climbed

-3 -4 -3 -4 4 -4 4

were just seasons out of time.

 

 

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye, Papa, please pray for me,

5 5 5 5 5 5 -5 5 -4 3 3

I was the black sheep of the family.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

You tried to teach me right from wrong.

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

Too much wine and too much song,

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

wonder how I get along.

 

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye, Papa, it's hard to die

5 5 5 5 5

when all the birds are

-5 5 -4 3 3

singing in the sky.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

Now that the spring is in the air.

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

Little children everywhere.

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

When you see them I'll be there.

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

We had joy, we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the wine and the song,

-4 4 -3 3 -3 -4 4

like the seasons, have all gone.

 

 

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye, Michelle, my little one.

5 5 5 5

You gave me love

5 5 -5 5 -4 3 3

and helped me find the sun.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

And every time that I was down

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

you would always come around

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

and get my feet back on the ground.

 

5 5 5 5 4 -4 5 5

Goodbye, Michelle, it's hard to die,

5 5 5 5 5

when all the birds are

-5 5 -4 3 3

singing in the sky.

-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

Now that the spring is in the air.

4 -4 5 5 -4 4 -4

With the flowers everywhere.

-3 4 -4 -4 4 -3 4

I wish that we could both be there.

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

We had joy, we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the stars we could reach

-4 4 -3 -4 -3 -4 4

were just starfishs on the beach.

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

We had joy, we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the stars we could reach

-4 4 -3 -4 -3 -4 4

were just starfishs on the beach.

 

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

We had joy, we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the wine and the song,

-4 4 -3 3 -3 -4 4

like the seasons, have all gone.

 

 

5 -5 6 6 6 6

All our lives we had fun,

-5 5 -4 4 -4 5 3

we had seasons in the sun.

-4 5 -5 -5 -5 -5

But the hills that we climbed

-3 -4 -3 -4 4 -4 4

were just seasons out of time.
