Mariah Carey - Bye Bye Lyrics (on screen) chords
Start Jamming...
[Bb] This is for my people [F] who just lost somebody
[Gm] You're best friend, you're baby, [Dm] your man or your [Eb] lady
Put your head where [Bb] I'm high
We [Cm] won't ever say [Gm] bye
No, [Bb] no, no
Mamas, daddies, teachers, [F] brothers, friends and cousins
[Gm] This is for my people who [Dm] lost their grandmothers
[Eb] Lift your head to [Bb] the sky
We [Cm] won't ever say [Bb] bye
As a child, [Dm] there were times
[Gm] I didn't get it, [Dm] but you kept me in line
[Eb] I didn't know why, didn't show [Bb] up sometimes
On Sunday mornings, [Cm] and I missed you
But [Gm] I'm glad we talked [Eb] through
[Bb] All them growing-phone things
[F] The erasion brings
[Gm] You never let me know it
[Dm] You never let it show
[Eb] Because you loved me
[Bb] And now you're asleep
[Cm] There's so much more left to say
[G] If you were with me today, [Bb] days to fade
You never [F] knew I'd hurt [Gm] like this
And every [Dm] day life was so [Eb] bright
Wish [Bb] you'd have talked to me for a while
Wish you'd better find one to [Fm] cry
As [G] time goes [Bb] by
And I'm sure [F] that you've reached a better [Gm] place
Still I [Dm] give the world the same [Bb] young face
And if I hand this to you
Feels like it won't [Cm] be soon
And [Bb] my heart is going to do
The same thing
Bye, bye, [Dm] bye, bye, bye, [Gm] bye, bye
Bye, [Dm] bye, bye, bye, [Eb] bye, bye
[Bb] Bye, bye, bye, bye, [Cm] bye, bye,
[Bb] bye
You never got a chance to [F] see how good I'd [Gm] done
You never got to see me [Dm] back at number [Eb] one
I wish that you were here [Bb] to celebrate together
[Cm] I wish that we could spend the [Gm] holidays together
[Bb] I remember when you used [F] to tuck me in at [Gm] night
You could tell it now you gave me [Dm] that a hell so [Eb] tight
I thought you were so strong [Bb] you'd make it through whatever
[Cm] It's so hard to accept the [Bb] fact you're gone forever
You never [F] knew I'd hurt [Gm] like this
And every [Dm] day life was so [Eb] bright
Wish [Bb] you'd have talked to me for a while
Wish you'd better find one to [Cm] cry
[F]
[G] As time goes [Bb] by
Wish you could [F] reach the [Gm] fatal place
Feel like [Dm] I'm the one world to save [Bb] your face
And if I hand this to you
Feels like it won't [Cm] be soon
And [Bb] my heart is going to do
The same thing
Bye, bye, [Dm] bye, bye, bye, [Gm] bye, bye
The hardest thing [Dm] to say
[Eb] Bye,
[Bb] bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, [Cm] bye
Bye,
[G] bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, bye
If this is for my [Eb] peoples, go just love [Bb] somebody
You're best friend, you're baby, your man or your lady
Put your hand up high
And we won't ever say goodbye
For our mommas, daddies, teachers, [F] brothers, friends, and cousins
[Gm] If this is for my peoples, for [Dm] us, like we're brothers
[Eb] Lift your [Bb] head to the sky
Cause we won't [Cm] ever [Bb] say goodbye
Bye, bye, bye, bye, bye, [F] bye, bye
I never [Gm] knew it
And every [Dm] day I [Eb] wish
[Bb] Wish you'd better find one to [Cm] cry
As [Bb] time goes by
Wish you could [F] reach the fatal [Gm] place
Feel like [Dm] I'm the one world to save [Eb] your face
And if I hand this to [Bb] you
Feels like it won't [Cm] be soon
And my heart is going to do
[F] Say, [Bb] bye, bye, [Dm] bye, bye, [Gm] bye, bye
If I just gave [Bb] my mind [Eb] away
My pride's gone, [Bb] my body's [Cm] hanging
We [Bb] ain't getting no pay
If [Dm] this is for my peoples, [Gm] go just love somebody
[Bb] You're best [Eb] friend, you're baby, [Bb] your man or your lady
Just lift your [Cm] head to [Bb] the sky
We won't [F] ever say [Bb] goodbye
