Goodbye to you my trusted friend,

we`ve known each other since we were nine or ten

together we climbed hills and trees

learned of love A B C; skinned our harts and skinned our knees.

Good bye my friend it`s hard to die,

when all the birds are singing in the sky

now that the spring is in the air

pretty girls are ev'ry where,

think of me and I`ll be there

We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun,

but the hills thet we climb were just seasons out of time.

*(play riff 2 once)*

Goodbye papa plees pray for me,

I was the blacksheep of the family,

you tried to teach me right from wrong,

too much wine and too much song,

wounder how I got along.

Good bye 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 everywere ,

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 out of time.

(play riff 2 once)

Goodbye Michelle my little one,

you gave me love and helped me find the sun,

and every time that I was down,

you 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,

whit 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 *Fade out*

"Every thing was better in the good old days,

when everybody was in pain"

We had [E]joy, we had fun, we had s[F#m]easons in the sun,
