🎶 How Do I Say Goodbye

Capo 3


Early [A#]mornin', there's a [Bb]message on my phone
It's my [Eb]mother saying "Darlin', please come [Db]home"
I fear the [A#]worst, but how could you [Bb]leave us all behind?
There's so [Eb]much to say, but there's so little [Db]time

So how do I [Em]say goodb[A#]ye
To [Db]someone's who's been [Bb]with me for my [Em]whole damn [A#]life?
[Db]You gave me [Bb]my name and the [Em]color of your [A#]eyes
I see your [Db]face when I look at [Bb]mine
So [Em]how do I, how do I, [A#]how do I say good[Db]bye?

When I [A#]call you, you always [Bb]saw the best in me
[Eb]Right or wrong, you were always on my [Db]side
I'm [A#]scared of what [Bb]life without you's like
And I [Eb]saw the way she looked into your [Db]eyes
And I [Eb]promised if you go I will [Db]make sure she's alright

So how do I [Em]say goodb[A#]ye
To [Db]someone's who's been [Bb]with me for my [Em]whole damn [A#]life?
[Db]You gave me [Bb]my name and the [Em]color of your [A#]eyes
I see your [Db]face when I look at [Bb]mine
So [Em]how do I, how do I, [A#]how do I say good[Db]bye?

And there's [A#]no way you can ever let me [Bb]down
You wanna [A#]steal you some time and start again
[Db]You'll always be my closest friend
And [Eb]some day, we are gonna make it [Bb]out
Just hold the [Db]light, just hold the [E7]light

So how do I [Em]say goodb[A#]ye
To [Db]someone's who's been [Bb]with me for my [Em]whole damn [A#]life?
[Db]You gave me [Bb]my name and the [Em]color of your [A#]eyes
I see your [Db]face when I look at [Bb]mine
So [Em]how do I, how do I, [A#]how do I say good[Db]bye?
So [Em]how do I, how do I, [A#]how do I say good[Db]bye?⠀
