Seasons In The Sun - Terry Jacks

Verse 1:
Good bye to you my trusted [C] friend,
We’ve known each other since we were [Dm] nine or ten, 
Together we climbed hills and [C] trees,
Learned of love and A B [Dm] C;
Skinned our [G7] hearts and skinned our [C] knees
Good bye my friend it’s hard to die, when all the birds are singing [Dm] in the sky 
Now that the spring is in the [C] air.
Pretty girls are every[Dm]where... 
[G7] think of me and I’ll be [C] there.

|Chorus:
|We had joy, we had fun, we had [Dm] seasons in the sun,
|But the [G7] hills that we climbed were just seasons out of [C*] time.

Verse 2:
Goodbye Papa, please pray for [C] me.
I was the black-sheep of the [Dm] family
You tried to teach me right from [C] wrong, 
Too much wine and too much [Dm] song;
Wonder [G7] how I got [C] along
Good bye Papa it’s hard to die, when all the birds are singing [Dm] in the sky, 
Now that the spring is in the [C] air.
Little children every [Dm] where...
[G7] when you, see them I’ll be [C] there.

|Chorus:
|We had joy, we had fun, we had [Dm] seasons in the sun,
|But the [G7] wine and the song like the seasons have all [C*] gone.

Verse 3:
Good bye Michelle, my little [C] one
You gave me love and helped me [Dm] find the sun, 
And every time that I was [C] down.
You would always come [Dm] around
And get my [G7] feet back on the [C] ground 
Good bye Michelle it’s hard to die, when all the birds are singing [Dm] in the sky, 
Now that the spring is in the [C] air.
With the flowers every [Dm] where... 
[G7] I wish that we could both be [C] there.

|Chorus:
|We had joy, we had fun, we had [Dm] seasons in the sun,
|But the [G7] stars we could reach were just starfish on the [C] beach 
|We had joy, we had fun, we had [Dm] seasons in the sun,
|But the [G7] wine and the song like the seasons have all [C*] gone.
