F F/A Bb Bb/D
As the sun hides his head for another night's rest
C Bb C F (Riff 1)
And the wind sings his same old song
F F/A Bb Bb/D
And you on the edge never close never far
C Bb C F (Riff 1)
Always there when I needed a friend
Dm C Bb
But it's hard living life on this memory-go-round
Dm C Bb
Always up always down spinning round & round & round
C F F/A Bb Bb/D
And all this could be such a dream so it seems

C Bb C F
I was never much good at goodbye
F/A Bb Bb/D
There once was a time never far from my mind
C Bb C F (Riff 1)
On a beach on the Fourth of July
F/A Bb Bb/D
I remember the sand how you held out your hand
C Bb C F (Riff 1)
And we touched for what seemed a lifetime
Dm C Bb
But it's hard leaving all this behind me now
Dm C Bb
Like a schoolboy so lost never found until now
C F F/A Bb Bb/D
And all this could be such a dream so it seems
C Bb C F
I was never much good at goodbye
