^G A long ^D , lon ^Em7 g time ago,
^Am I can still re ^C member how that m ^Em usic used to make me ^D smile
And ^G I know that ^D if I ^Em7 had my chance,
That ^Am I could make those ^C people dance and ^Em maybe they'd be ^C happy for a ^D while
^G Did you write the ^Am book of love
And do ^C you have faith in ^Am god above, ^Em if the bible ^D tells you so?
^G Now do you ^D believe in ^Em rock and roll
Am7* C Em A7 D
Think that music save your mortal soul if you will teach me how to dance real slow?
Well I ^Em know that you're in ^D love with him 'cuz I ^Em saw you dancin' ^D in the gym
You ^C both kicked ^G off your ^A7 shoes, man I ^C dig those rhythm and ^D7 blues
I was a ^G lonely ^D teenage ^Em broncin' buck with a ^Am pink carnation and a ^C pickup truck
But ^G I knew ^D I was ^Em out of luck the ^C day the ^D7 music ^G die ^C d, ^G I started singin'
(Chorus:)
^G bye, ^C bye Miss ^G American ^D Pie
Drove my ^G Chevy to the ^C levy but the ^G levy was ^D dry
And them ^G good old ^C boys were drinkin' ^G whiskey and ^D rye
Singin' ^Em this will be the day that I ^A7 die, ^Em this will be the day that I ^D7 die
I ^G met a ^D girl who ^Em sang the blues
And I ^Am asked her for some ^C happy news, but ^Em she just smiled and turned a ^D way
Then I ^G went down ^D to the ^Em sacred store
Where I'd ^Am heard the music ^C years before, but the ^Em man there said the ^C music
wouldn't ^D play
Well now ^Em in the streets the ^Am children screamed, the ^Em lovers cry and the ^Am poets dream
But ^C not a ^G word was ^Am spoken, the ^C church bells all were ^D broken
And the ^G three men ^D I ad ^Em mire most, the ^Am7 Father, ^C Son, and the ^D7 Holy Ghost
^G They caught the ^D last train ^Em for the coast the ^Am7 day the ^D7 music ^G died,
^D7 We started singin'
(Chorus x2)
^D7 We started singin'
^D7 We started singin'
^D7 We started singin'
^D7 We started singin'
