Intro - G5 - A5 - G5 - C5 (or C5 )



(1st Verse)
          G5
Well, it's two miles East to West
    A5
Only four miles North to South
            G5
And when you pass the only red light
        C5
You will see the pastor's house
      G5
People look you in the eye
        A5
And they smile at you and wave
          G5
Yeah, they always take the time
           C5
To stop and ask you, 'How's your day?'
                A5      D5
It's hard to say goodbye
                  A5       D5
'Cause baby, it's a good life



(2nd Verse)
      G5
At the high school football game
        A5
Is where I got my first kiss
      G5
I still feel the butterflies
      C5
I still taste it on my lips
           G5
And when we lost our Uncle Jake
      A5
Back in 1983
       G5
We heard Daddy upstairs weepin'
    C5
So we cried ourselves to sleep
                A5     D5
It's hard to say goodbye
                  A5       D5
'Cause baby, it's a good life


(Chorus)
   G5       A5       C5       D5
Goodbye to mem'ries that I saved
   G5       A5       C5       D5
Goodbye to all the friends I made
   G5       A5       C5        D5    A5   D5
Goodbye to all the home I'll ever kno----ow
  (NO   CHORD)  G
Small town Jericho




(Bridge)
           E5                  C5
And every road here looks the same
           E5              C5
This ol' town won't ever change
                   C5      D5
And that's what I love the most
             C  C/B  Am   D   G
