Seasons In The Sun
F
Good bye to you my thrusted friend, we`ve known each other since we were
Gm C7 F
nine or ten; together we climbed hills and trees,
F Gm C7 F
learned of love A B C; skinned our harts and skinned our knees.
F Gm
Good bye my friend it`s hard to die, when all the birds are singing in the sky
C7 F
now that the spring is in the air
F Gm C7 F
pretty girls are ev'`ry where, think of me and I`ll be there
F Gm
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun,
C7 F
but the hills thet we climb were just seasons out of time.

Goodbye papa please pray for me
I was the black sheep of the family
you tried to teach me right from wrong
too much wine and too much song
wonder how I got alone
goodbye papa it's hard to die
when all the birds are singing in the sky
now that the spring is in the air
little children everywhere
when you see them I'll be there
We had joy we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the wine and the song
like the seasons have all gone
we had joy we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the wine and the song
like the seasons have all gone
Goodbye Michelle my little one
you gave me love
and helped me find the sun
and every time that I was down
you would always come around
and get my feet back on the ground
goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
when all the birds are singing in the sky
now that the spring is in the air
with the flowers everywhere
I wish that we could both be there
We had joy we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the stars we could reach
were just starfish on the beach
we had joy we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the stars we could reach
were just starfish on the beach
We had joy we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the wine and the song
like the seasons have all gone
all our lives we had fun
we had seasons in the sun
but the hills that we climbed

(play both of these with lots of reverb)
how it all goes together.....
(note: in the song, theres no guitar during the first
half of each verse, just a cheesy keyboard figure. I've
listed guitar chords anyway; I usually play them with
a palm mute to simulate the keyboard)
