G  C  G  D  G  D

G                         C               G 
I'm singing this song its time it was sung
                              D 
I been putting it off for a while
          G        C              G           C     
But its harder by now cause the truth is so clear 
        G            D           G     D
that I cry when I'm seeing you smile

       G       C        G             C
So goodbye so long the road calls me dear 
          G                       D
And your tears cannot bind me anymore 
         G           C             G          C 
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
       G            D            G       D
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone 

G                         C             G    
Everytime that I try to tell you that we've 
                                    D
lost the magic that we had at the start 
         G        C            G           C
I would weep my heart when I look in your eyes 
         G          D             G       D
And I search once again for the spark

       G       C        G             C
So goodbye so long the road calls me dear 
          G                       D
And your tears cannot bind me anymore 
         G           C             G          C 
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
       G            D            G       D
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone

G                       C              G
I can see by your eyes its time now to go 
                                 D
so I'll leave you to cry in the rain 
            G        C        G          C
though I held in my hand the key to all joy 
               G            D           G       D
but honey my heart was not born to be tamed

       G       C        G             C
So goodbye so long the road calls me dear 
          G                       D
And your tears cannot bind me anymore 
         G           C             G          C 
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
       G            D            G       D
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone
       G       C        G             C
So goodbye so long the road calls me dear 
          G                       D
And your tears cannot bind me anymore 
         G           C             G          C 
And farewell to the girl with the sun in her eyes
       G            D            G       D
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone
       G            D            G       D
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone
       G            D            G       
And I kiss you and then I'll be gone
