 -3  -3  -3 -3  -2   3   -3   -3
Good-bye to you my trust-ed friend
 -3    -3    -3  -3  -3
We've known each oth-er 
 -3   -3* -3    3  -1 -1
since we were nine or ten
3    3  3    3      3     -2    2   -2
To-geth-er we’ve climbed hills and trees
  -2    3   -3  -3  3 -2 3
Learned of love and A B C's
   2    -2    -3    3    -2     2   -2
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
 
 -3  -3  -3   -3    -2    3  -3 -3
Good-bye my friend it's hard to die
 -3  -3  -3   -3   -3
When all the birds are 
-3*  -3  3  -1  -1
sing-ing in the sky
 3    3   3     3   3  -2  2  -2
Now that the spring is in the air
 -2  3    -3  -3  3   -2   3
Pret-ty girls are ev-‘ry-where

-3* -3   3  -2  3  -3  -1 
We had seas-ons in the sun
 3  -3   -3*  -3*  -3* -3*    3   -2
But the hills that we climb were just 
 2   -1   2  3   -2
Sea-sons out of time.

 -3  -3  -3 -3   -2    3   -3  -3
Good-bye Pa-pa please pray for me
-3 -3 -3   -3    -3  -3-3* -3  3 -1 -1 
I was the black sheep of  the fam-i-ly
 3    3   3    3   3   -2    2    -2
You tried to teach me right from wrong
-2   3    -3  -3   3   -2   3
Too much wine and too much song
 2  -2  -3  3 -2  2  -2
Won-der how I got a-long.

-3  -3   -3 -3  -2    3  -3 -3
Good-bye Pa-pa it's hard to die
 -3  -3  -3   -3   -3
When all the birds are 
-3*  -3  3  -1  -1
sing-ing in the sky
 3    3   3     3   3  -2  2  -2
Now that the spring is in the air
 -2  3    -3  -3  3   -2   3
Lit-tle child-ren ev-‘ry-where
  2    -2    3    3   -2  2   -2
When you’ll see them I'll be there

-3 -3*  4  4   4   4
We had joy we had fun
-3* -3   3  -2  3  -3  -1 
We had seas-ons in the sun
 3  -3   -3* -3* -3* -3*   3   -2
But the wine and the song like the
 2   -1   2    3   -2
Sea-sons have all gone.


We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone.

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone.

Goodbye Michelle my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
And every time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground.

Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the stars we could reach
Were just starfish on the beach

We had joy we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the wine and the song like the seasons
Have all gone

All our lives we had fun
We had seasons in the sun
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons
Out of time
