Centuries have passed
And though I want it to I know that it won't last
Well you were good to me before
But the good got up and went when you went out the door

So I said goodbye
Even though I know I'll die
I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
[Verse 2]
(same as verse 1)
It's not important to me now
At least that's what I tell myself when I am feeling down
I'm not in love enough to stay
But I'm in love enough to know that I should go away
[Chorus 2]
(same as chorus 1)
So I said goodbye
Even though I know I'll die
I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
[Bridge]
During the bridge Mr. Ray plays a sequence of C-Cmaj7-C-DSus4-GSus4/D. Listen to the recording to get the
rhythm right. The chords are:
C X32010
CMaj7 X32000
Dsus4 XX0233
Gsus4/D XX0013
I hollered
I said goodbye to Mr. M-I-N-G-O
[Solo]
After the solo, play one more chorus, then repeat the bridge progression over and over, ending on a Dsus4-
Gsus4/D, Dsus4 - Gsus4/D - C. If you're playing with a mate, the lead is repeating this phrase over those
chords:

Centuries have passed
And even though I want it to I know that it won't last
It was different to me before
The good got up and went when you went out the door
So I said goodbye
Even though I know I'll die
I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
It's not important to me now
At least that's what I tell myself when I am feeling down
I'm not in love enough to stay
But I'm in love enough to know that I should go away
So I said goodbye
Even though I know I'll die
I said goodbye to Mr. Mingo
My father said goodbye to Mr. M-I-N-G-O
