Verse 1
Goodbye to Love Key G rising to A for the Guitar Solo (not tabbed)
I’ll say good [Gadd9]bye to love, [Am7]No one ever [D/G]cared if I should [G]live or [D/G]die
[G]Time and time a [D/G]gain the chance for [B]love has passed me [Em]by
And [C#m7-5]all I [G]know of love is [Am7/G]how to live with [G/B]out it, I [B7]just can’t seem to
[Em]find it[C#m7-5]
[G] So I’ve made my [Am7]mind up I must [G/B]live my life a [Am7/D]lone
And [G]though its not the [Am7]easy way I [G/B]guess I’ve always [Am7/D]known.
I’d say good [Gadd9]bye to love
[Am7]There are no to [D]morrows for this [G]heart of [D/G]mine
[G]Surely time will [D/G]lose these bitter [B]memories
And Ill [Em]find that [C#m7-5]there is [G]someone to [Am7/G]believe in
and to [G/B]live for, [B7]something I could [Em]live [C#m7-5]for
[G] All the years of [Am7/G]useless search have [G/B]finally reached an [D]end
[G]Loneliness and [Am7]empty days will [G/B]be my only [D]friend
From this [B7]day love is for [E]gotten, I’ll go [Am7]on as [Am7-5]best I [D7sus4]can[D7]
Verse 3
1st Solo up to
[G]What lies in the [Am7/G]future is a [Gmaj9]mystery to us [Am7/D]all
[G]No one can pre [Am7/G]dict the wheel of [Bm7/G]fortune as it [Am7/D]falls
[C#m7/E]There may come a [Bm7/E]time when I will [C#m7/E]see that I’ve been [Bm7/E]wrong
But for [C#m7/E]now this is my [Bm7/E]song; And it’s [Aadd9]goodbye to [E7sus4]love[E7]
I’ll say good [Aadd9]bye to [E7sus4]love.[E7]
