G  D  G  D


[Verse 1]

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


[Chorus]

       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
Can I kiss you and then I'll be gone


[Verse 2]

      G                  C              G
Every time that I try to tell you that we've
         G                         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


[Chorus]

       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
Can I kiss you and then I'll be gone

[Verse 3]

      G                     C            G
I can see by your eyes it's time now to go
        G                        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


[Chorus]

       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
Can 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
Can I kiss you and then I'll be gone


[Outro]

       G            D            G       D
Can I kiss you and then I'll be gone
       G            D            G
Can I kiss you and then I'll be gone
