Please rate/comment/correct. =)

A7* chords are optional, but I think they sound good if you play a solo guitar. =)



Capo on 4th fret for original key.


Intro: | F F# G F | F F# G F | F F# G D | 

                            D
Goodbye to you my trusted friend.
                                     Em
We've known each other since we were nine or ten.
         A7*                    D
Together we climbed hills and trees.
                        Em               A7                     D
Learned of love and A-B-C, skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
                                D                                  Em
Goodbye my friend it's hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky.
              A7*              D
now that the spring is in the air.
                       Em   A7                          D
Pretty girls are everywhere,  think of me and I'll be there.

        D                       Em
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
         A7                                            D    | F F# G D |
but the hills that we climb were just seasons out of time.

                              D                                 Em
Goodbye papa, please pray for me. I was the black sheep of the family.
               A7*                 D
You tried to teach me right from wrong.
                            Em          A7          D
Too much wine and too much song, wonder how I got along.
                            D                                  Em
Goodbye papa, it's hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky.
              A7*              D
Now that the spring is in the air.
                      Em   A7                            D
Little children everywhere,   when you see them I'll be there.

        D                        Em 
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
         A7                                          D 
but the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone.
        F                       Gm       
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
         C7                                           F   | F F# G D |
but the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone.

                             D                                   Em
Goodbye Michelle, my little one. You gave me love and helped me find the sun.
           A7*             D
And every time that I was down,
           D            Em               A7                D
you would always come around and get my feet back on the ground.
                               D                                  Em
Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky.
               A7*             D
now that the spring is in the air.
                       Em   A7                               D
With the flowers everywhere,  I wish that we could both be there.

        D                       Em 
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
          A7                                             D 
but the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach.
        F                ´       Gm         
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
         C7                                           F
but the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach.
       F#                        G#m       
We had joy, we had fun. We had seasons in the sun,
        C#7                                          F#
but the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone.
         F#                       G#m       
All our lives we had fun, we had seasons in the sun,
         C#7                                          F#
but the hills that we climb were just seasons out of time.

FADE OUT
