(1st Verse)
Well, it's[G] two miles East to West
Only[Am7] four miles North to South
And when you[G/B] pass the only red light
You will[Cadd9] see the pastor's house
People[G] look you in the eye
And they[Am7] smile at you and wave
Yeah, they[G/B] always take the time
To stop and[Cadd9] ask you, 'How's your day?'
It's hard to say[Am7] goodbye [D]
'Cause baby, it's [Am7]a good lif[D]e

At the[G] high school football game
Is where[Am7] I got my first kiss
I stil[G/B]l feel the butterflies
I stil[Cadd9]l taste it on my lips
And when we[G] lost our Uncle Jake
Back i[Am7]n 1983
We hear[G/B]d Daddy upstairs weepin'
So w[Cadd9]e cried ourselves to sleep
It's hard to say[Am7] goodbye[D]
'Cause baby, it's [Am7]a good lif[D]e

Goo[G]dbye to [Am7]mem'ries t[C]hat I sa[D]ved

And it's the rea-son  I  must go

(3rd Verse)
I put boxes on the porch
Daddy puts them in the car
Best to get the loadin' done
Won't be easy in the dark
'Cause I'm leavin' after midnight
And if anyone asks why
I wanna wait 'til Mama's sleepin'
'Cause I can't bear to see her cry
It's hard to say goodbye
'Cause baby, it's a good life

(Chorus)
Goo[G]dbye to [Am7]mem'ries t[C]hat I sa[D]ved
Goo[G]dbye to [Am7]all the fr[C]iends I [D]made
