 G                            G
Good-bye to you, my trusted friend,   
                                     Am 
We've known each other since we were nine or ten.  
                                G        
Together we climbed hills and trees,   
                        Am
Learned of love and А В Сs,  
             D                       G
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.   
                                     G
   Good-bye my friend, it's hard to die  
                           Am 
   When all the birds are singing in the sky.  
                                  G
   Now that the Spring is in the air  
                          Am
   Pretty girls are ev'rywhere. 
             D               G
   Think of me and I'll be there.  
             G                     Am
     We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun  
              D                              D7             G
     But the hills we would climb were just seasons out of time  
 G                              G
Good-bye, Papa, please pray for me.   
                              Am
I was the black sheep of the family.  
                                   G
You tried to teach me right from wrong.  
                            Am
Too much wine and too much song,  
        D          G
Wonder how I got along.  
                                 G
   Good-bye, Papa, it's hard to die  
                                  Am 
   When all the birds are singing in the sky.  
                              G
   Now that spring is in the air,  
                         Am 
   Little children everywhere,  
             D                 G
   When you see them I'll be there.  
             G                     Am
     We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun  
              D                          D7               G  
     But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone.  
  G                         G
Good-bye Michelle my little one,  
                                Am 
You gave me love and helped me find the sun  
                          G 
And everytime that I was down,   
                        Am
You would always come around 
            D                 G
and get my feet back on the ground.  
                                    G 
   Good-bye Michelle, it's hard to die  
                                  Am 
   When all the birds are singing in the sky.  
                                  G
   Now that the spring is in the air  
                         Am
   Pretty flowers everywhere;  
               D7                 G
   I wish that we could both be there.                                 
             G                     Am
     We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun  
               D                         D7              G  
     Let the stars we can reach just be starfish on the beach.
