Goodbye    (video)

 

    C - G - G7 - F - G - C

 

   C                                             G    - G7

1.    I remember holding on to you,

Am                           - F                         C

    all them long and      lonely nights I put you through.

C                                                                    G   - G7

    Somewhere in there I'm sure I made you cry,

            - F                           - G                           C

    but I       can't remember       if we said goodbye.

 

              F                                               C

But I recall all of those nights down in Mexico,

                            G                              C    - G

one place I may never go in my life again.

           C                                            G     - G7

Was I just off somewhere, just too high ?

         - F                           - G                           C

but I       can't remember        if we said goodbye.

    C                                                               G   - G7

2.      I only miss you, here every now and then,

Am                               - F                                     C

    like the soft breeze        blowin’ up from the Caribbean.

C                                                           G   - G7

    Most Novembers I break down and cry,

            - F                           - G                           C

    but I       can't remember       if we said goodbye.

 

              F                                              C

But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico,

                                 G                             C    - G

that’s one place I’ll never go in my life again.

                - C                                                      G     - G7

Ah, was I        off somewhere, maybe just too high ?

         - F                           - G                           C

but I       can't remember        if we said goodbye.

 

             - F                           - G                          Am            F

+  But I       can't remember       if we said goodbye, goodbye.

               C

    Goodbye.
