[F] [Em]
[F] [G] [C]
Oh, [F] we never [C] know where life will take [F] us
I know it's just a ride on the wheel
[Em] [C] And we [D] never know [C] when death will shake us
[F]
And we wonder how it will feel
[G] So [C]
[F] goodbye my [C] friend
I [G] [C]
know I'll [Am] never see [C] you again
[G] But [F] the time [G] together [Bb] through [Gm] all the years
[F] Will take [C] away [D] these tears
[C] It's okay now
[Em] [F]
[C] [Dm] Goodbye [Em] [C] my friend
[F] [Dm]
[Em] [F] [C] [G] [C]
I see [G] a lot of [C] things that make me crazy
And I guess I held on to [F] you
[C] You [G] [C]
could have [Gm] run away and [C] left
Well maybe
[F] But it wasn't time and we're both here
So [G] [C]
[Am] goodbye my [C] friend
[G] I [C]
know [F] I'll never [Am] see [C] you again
[G] [F] But the [G] love you gave [Bb] me through all the [F] years
Will [C] take away [D] these tears
[C] I'm okay now
[Em] [F]
[G] [Dm] Goodbye [G] [C] my friend
Life's so fragile and love's so pure
[F] We can't run but we try
[C] We watch how quickly it disappears
[F]
And we never know why
But I'm [G]
okay [C] now
[Em] [F]
[C] Goodbye [Em]
[C] my friend
[G]
[Am] You
[G] can go [C] now
[Em]
