Goodbye to you
my trusted friend
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
Together we've climbed hills and trees
Learned of love and A-B-C's
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.
Goodbye
my friend
it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky;
Now that the spring is in the air
Pretty girls are ev'rywhere
Think of me and I'll be there.
We had joy
we had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the hills that we climbed
Were just seasons out of time.
Goodbye
Papa
please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family;
You tried to teach me right from wrong
Too much wine and too much song
wonder how I got along.
Goodbye
papa
it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky;
Now that the spring is in the air
Little children ev'rywhere
When you'll see them
I'll be there.
We had joy
we had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the wine and the song
Like the seasons have all gone.{Repeat last 5 lines}
Goodbye
Michelle
my little one
You gave me love and helped me find the sun;
And ev'ry time that I was down
You would always come around
And get my feet back on the ground.
Goodbye
Michelle
it's hard to die
When all the birds are singing in the sky;
Now that the spring is in the air
With the flowers ev'rywhere;
I wish that we could both be there.
We had joy
we had fun
We had seasons in the sun;
But the stars we could reach

The marching band came down along main street
The soldier blues fell in behind
I looked across and there I saw Billy waiting to go and join the line
And with her head upon his shoulder his young and lovely fiance
From where I stood I saw she was crying and through her tears I heard her say
Billy, don't be a hero don't be a fool with your life
Billy don't be a hero come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said Billy keep your head low
Billy don't be a hero, come back to me
The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside
The battle raging all around
The sargent cried we've got to hang on boys
We've got to hold this piece of ground
I need a volunteer to ride up and bring us back some extra men
And Billy's hand was up in a moment forgetting all the words she said
She said...
Billy, don't be a hero don't be a fool with your life
Billy don't be a hero come back and make me your wife
And as he started to go she said Billy keep your head low
Billy don't be a hero, come back to me
I heard his fiance got a letter that told how Billy died that day
The letter said that he was a hero she should be proud he died that way

Oh, I can still remember when I bought my first guitar
Remember walking from the shop to put it proudly in my car
And my family listened fifty times to my two song repertoire
I told my Mom her only son was gonna be a star.
Well I bought all the Beatles records, sounded just like hall
Or Buddy Holly or Chuck Berry's, seventy-eight in all
And I sat by my record player playing every note they played
I watched them all on TV, copied every move they made.
Oh, Rock'n'Roll I gave you all the best years of my life
All the teeny sunny Sundays, all the moonless summer nights
I was so busy in the bed room, writing love songs to you
But you were changing your direction and I never even knew
That I was always just one step behind you.
Well, sixty-six seemed like the year I was really goin' somewhere
I was living in San Francisco wearing flowers in my hair
Singing songs of kindness so the world would understand
The guys and me thought wer were more than just another band.
Oh, Rock'n'Roll I gave you all the best years of my life
All the crazy, lazy young days, all the magic moony nights
I was so busy on the road, singing love songs to you
But you were changing your direction and you never even knew
That I was always just one step behind you.
Seventy-one I was all alone when I met Sarah-Jane
I was trying to go it solo with someone else's band
When she came up to me softly and she took me by the hand
She listened to my problems and she seemed to understand.
And she followed me to London to a hundred hotel rooms
To a hundred record companies who didn't like my tunes
And she followed me back to Tennessee where she findly made me see
I'm just a plain old Country boy and that's all I'll ever be.
Oh, Rock'n'Roll I gave you all the best years of my life
All the teeny sunny Sundays, all the moonless summer nights
Oh, I never knew the magic I'm making it with you
I'm getting along with a Country song doing what I wanna do

Christina can make you feel so groovy
Christina will make you almost burn
But Christina can only try and fool ya
'Cause you know Christine ain't too good
Christina, moving like a river
Christina can never turn around
And Christina, well, no one comes to see ya
'Cause you know Christine can't be found
I had a dream about you, Christine
I dreamt that flowers growing sideways so green
And butterflies covered all of your head
And an angel slept beside your bed
Christina, if I could stop that river
Christina, I could let you know
Christina, I got that something for ya
And you know I can't let it go
I had a dream about you, Christine
I dreamt that flowers growing sideways so green
And butterflies covered all of your head
And an angel slept beside your bed
And an angel slept beside your bed
Christina
Christina
Christina

And when I saw you walking by today
I found it hard to find the words to say
And though I'd practised them so many times
They just got jumbled in my mind
Remember when you were so close to me
And we would dream about how it would be
That's all changed now since you've gone away

I played the love game
Like I was a kid
I played the love game
And thought I could win
I played the love game
You played the love game
But you were no fool
You played it your way
And made up the rules
You played the love game
I played the love game
And thought I was smart
I played the love game
And you won my heart
You played the love game

The marchin' band came down along main street
The soldier blues fell in behind
I looked across and there I saw Billy
Waiting to go and join the line
And with her head upon his shoulder
His young and lovely fiancee
From where I stood I saw she was cryin'
And through her tears I heard her say
Billy don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Billy don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
And as Billy started to go, she said keep your pretty head low
Billy don't be a hero, come back to me
The soldier blues were trapped on a hillside
The battle ragin' all around
The sergeant cried, we've gotta hang on boys
We've gotta hold this piece of ground
I need a volunteer to ride out
And bring us back some extra men
And Billy's hand was up in a moment
Forgettin' all the words she said, she said
Billy don't be a hero, don't be a fool with your life
Billy don't be a hero, come back and make me your wife
And as Billy started to go, she said keep your pretty head low
Billy don't be a hero, come back to me
I heard his fiancee got a letter
That told how Billy died that day
The letter said he was a hero
She should be proud he died that way

I heard some music being played today
I heard a song but the words were wrong
It didn't matter to me anyway
Some people really don't care what they say
I started looking to the sky today
'Cause it's so big and it's so far away
I've got too many things inside my head
I wish that I could be up there instead
No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free
And then I looked into the ocean blue
'Cause it's so deep and it's so quiet too
There's just too many people everywhere
I wish that I was down there
No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free
I heard a story being told today
About a man and just how he got away
You got to leave the things you grow up for
Turn your head and start to swim for shore
No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me
Wishes he could be set free
No one is meant to be
Living here in a concrete sea
Everyone, including me

If you go away
On this summer day
Then you might as well
Take the sun away
All the birds that flew
In the summer sky
When our love was new
And our hearts were high
And the day was young
And the nights were long
And the moon stood still
For the night bird's song
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away
But if you stay
I'll make you a day
Like no day has been
Or will be again
We'll sail the sun
We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees
We'll fly with the wind
But if you go away
When I love you so
There'll be nothing left
In the world, you know
Just an empty room
Full of empty space
Like the empty look
I see on your face
If you go away
If you go away
If you go away
But if you stay
I'll make you a day
Like no day has been
Or will be again
We'll sail the sun
We'll ride on the rain
We'll talk to the trees
We'll fly with the wind
But if you go away
If you go away
