-1 -5 -5 -5 -4 3
A long, long time ago...
4 -3 4 4 -4 -3
I can still remember
3 -2* 3 -2* 3 -2* 3 -2* -1 3 -2* 2 -2*
How that music used to make me smile.
-1 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6 3
And I knew if I had my chance
3 -3 -4 4 -4 -3 -4 4
That I could make those people dance
-3 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 -4 -3 -2*
And, maybe, theyd be happy for a while.
2 -4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 3 -4
But feb-ru-ar-y made me shiver
-4 -4 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 3 2
With every paper Id deliver.
3 3 3 -2* 2 3
Bad news on the doorstep;
-3 3 -3 -4 6 -5 -4
I couldnt take one more step.
-4 6 -5 -5 -4 5 -4 3
I cant remember if I cried
-2* 2 -3 -4 4 -4 -3 -4 -3
When I read about his widowed bride,
-3 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -4 -3 3 2
But something touched me deep inside
3 2 3 5 -4 3
The day the music died.
-1 -5 5 5 -4 -4 -3 3 -3
So bye-bye, miss am-er-ic-an pie.
-5 -5 -5 -5 -5 4 4 4
Drove my chevy to the levee,
4 -4 -4 -3 3 -1
But the levee was dry.
-5 -5 -5 4 4 4 -4 -4 -3 3 -3
And them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
-4 -3 3 2 3 2 3 -2* 2 03
Singin, "thisll be the day that I die.
3 2 3 2 3 -2* 2 -2*
"thisll be the day that I die."
-5 6 -5 -5 -5 4 -4
Did you write the book of love,
-3 -4 4 -4 5 -4 5 -4 3
And do you have faith in God above,
3 3 3 -2* 3 -2* -1
If the Bible tells you so?
-5 6 -5 -5 -4 -5 -5 6
Do you believe in rock n roll,
-4 -5 -3 -5 5 -4 -3 4
Can music save your mortal soul,
-4 3 2 3 2 3 2 3 -4 -4
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
-4 4 6 -4 -4 -4 4 -4 -5
Well, I know that youre in love with him
5 -4 6 -4 -4 -4 5 -4 -5
`cause I saw you dancin in the gym.
-4 4 -4 -3 3 -4
You both kicked off your shoes.
7 7 7 7 7 7 -7 -6*
Man, I dig those rhythm and blues.
-8 7 6 7 6 -5 -5 -5 -5 -5 6
I was a lon__ely teenage broncin buck
-4 -4 -3 -4 4 -4 4 -4 -5 -4 -3
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck,
-4 -4 7 6 -5 -5 -5 -4
But I knew I was out of luck
3 3 -4 4 -4 3
The day the music died.
-5 -5 -5 6 -5
I started singin�
"bye-bye, miss american pie."
Drove my chevy to the levee,
But the levee was dry.
Them good old boys were drinkin whiskey and rye
And singin, "thisll be the day that I die.
"thisll be the day that I die."
