Verse (x2) I think Jon plays an acoustic guitar for the verse, but I hear a
lot of keyboard stuff. Well, for you electric players, use a clean tone.

Verse 1
G bm
As I sit in this smoky room the night about to end
F C
I pass my time with strangers, but the bottle's my only friend
G bm
Remember when we used to park on Butler Street out in the dark
F C
Remember when we lost the keys and you lost more than that in my back seat, believe it
G bm
Remember when we used to talk about busting out, we'd break their hearts.
Chorus
F C/B F C/B
Together forever
G bm
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
C cm
You and me and my old friends, hoping it would never end
G bm
Say goodbye, never say goodbye
C cm
Holding on we got to try, holding on to never say goodbye
Intro (only first time)
Verse 2
Remember days of skipping school, racing cars and being cool,
With a six pack and a radio, we didn't need no place to go
Remember at the prom that night, you and me we had a fight,
But the band they played our favorite song and I held you in my arms so strong
We'd guess you'd say we used to talk about busting out we'd break their hearts
Chorus
Solo G | bm | C | Eb - F | G | bm | C | Eb - F
G bm
Oh I guess you'd say we used to talk about busting out we'd break their hearts
