Start Jamming...
[Eb] Early morning, [Cm] there's a message on my phone
[Ab] It's my mother [Cm] saying, darling, please [Bb] come home
[Eb] I fear the worst, [Gm] how [Cm] could you leave us all behind?
[Fm] There's so much to [Cm] say, but there's so [Bb] little time
[Ebm] So how [Ab] do I say [Eb] goodbye?
[Bb]
Someone who's [Cm] been with me for [Ab] my whole [Eb] damn life
[Bb]
You [Cm] gave me my name [Ab] and the colour [Eb] of your eyes
I see [Bb] your face when I [Cm] look at mine
[Ab] So how do I, how [Eb] do I, how do I [Bb] say goodbye?
[Eb] When I couldn't, you [Cm] always saw the best in [Ab] me
Right or [Cm] wrong, you were always on [Bb] my side
[Eb] But I'm scared [Gm] of [Cm] what life without you's like
[Fm] And I saw the way [Cm] she looked until [Bb] you arrived
[Fm] And I promise [Cm] if you go, I [Bb] will make sure she's alright
So how [Ab] do I say [Eb] goodbye?
[Bb]
Someone who's [Cm] been with me for [Ab] my whole [Eb] damn life
[Bb]
You gave [Cm] me my name [Ab] and the colour [Eb] of your eyes
I see [Bb] your face when I [Cm] look at mine
[Ab] So how do I, how [Eb] do I, how do I say [Bb] goodbye?
There's no [Eb] way you could ever [Cm] let me down
[Eb] Gonna steal some time and start again
[Bb] You'll always be my closest friend
[Fm] And someday we're gonna [Cm] make it out
Just hold [Bb] the light, just hold [G] the light high
So how [Ab] do I say [Eb] goodbye?
[Bb] Someone who's [Cm] been with me for [Ab] my whole [Eb] damn life
[Bb]
You gave [Cm] me my name and [Ab] the colour of [Eb] your eyes
I see [Bb] your face when I look [Cm] at mine
[Ab] So how do I, how do [Eb] I, how do I say [Bb] goodbye?
[Ab] So how do I, how [Eb] do I, how do I [Bb] say goodbye?
