Intro: C5 

C5                              F5               C5 
Her heart was shattered by the cruel things he said
                                  D5            G5 
She went right for his pride, and ripped it to shreds 
   C5
He said, "I never really loved you" 
          F5               C5
She said, "I don't really care" 
                                G5          C5
Lord you'd never even know love ever lived there 
         N.C.                   C5
        It's just your basic goodbye 

        Just your plain old everyday 

        Don't let the door hit ya 
         F5   G5
        Goodbye 
                               C5
        Just your average farewell 
                                                                   F5
        To what you thought would be the greatest love you'd ever known  
             G5
        Farewell 
             F5                        G5              F#5
        Somebody's settin' fire to a bridge tonight  
              F5                     G5           F#5
        It's front row at an Ali/Frazier fight  
         F5                       G5
        Barnum & Bailey shoulda bought the rights 
                             C5
        Just your basic goodbye 
         C5                       F5       C5
When you first fall in love it's forever time 
                            D5              G5
Then one day it happens and you don't know why 
      C5
Sweet nothings turn into 
                 F5
Such mean bitter words 
                              G5            C5
And insults start flyin' like you've never heard 
 
Repeat Chorus 
 
Fiddle Solo 
                               C5
        Just your average farewell 
                                                                   F5
        To what you thought would be the greatest love you'd ever known  
             G5
        Farewell  
             F5                        G5              F#5
        Somebody's settin' fire to a bridge tonight  
              F5                     G5           F#5
        It's front row at an Ali/Frazier fight  
         F5                       G5
        Barnum & Bailey shoulda bought the rights
