A long, long time ago__
LAm DO MIm REI can still remember how that music used to make me smile.__
SOL RE MIm LAm DOAnd I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people dance
and maybe they'd by happy for a while.
MIm LAm MIm LAmBut February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver.
DO SOL LAm DO REBad news on the doorstep. I couldn't take one more step
I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride,
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLSomething touched me deep inside the day_ the music died._____
Chorus. So bye-bye, Miss American Pie.Drove my Chevy to the levee but the
SOL RE SOL DO SOL RE. levee was dry, them good ole boys were drinkin' whiskey and Rye, singing
MIm LA7 MIm RE7. this'll be the day that I die, This'll be the day that I die.__
verse:
G Am, C Am
Did you write the book of love and do you have faith in God above?__
If the Bible tells you so__ Now do you believe in rock and roll?
LAm DO MIm LA7 RE7Can music save your mortal soul? and can you teach me how to dance_ real slow?
MIm LAm MIm LAmWell I know that you're in love with him 'cause I saw you dancing in the gym,
You both kicked off your shoes, Man I dig those rhythm and blues!
SOL RE MIm LAm DOI was a lonely teenage broncin' buck, with a pink carnation and a pick-up truck.
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLBut I knew I was out of luck the day, the music died.___
I started singing.... (chorus)
. G Am, C Am
Now for ten years, we've been on our own and moss grows fat on a rolling stone,
MIm RE SOL RE MImBut that's not how it used to be.Cause when the jester sang for the King &
Queen
LAm DO MIm LA7 RE7in a coat he borrowed from James Dean and a voice that came from you and me__
MIm LAm MIm LAmOh and while the king was looking down the jester stole his thorny crown
the court room was adjourned no verdict was returned.
SOL RE MIm LAm DOAnd while Lennon read a book on Marx the quartet practiced in the park
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLand we sang dirges in the dark the day__ the music died__
I started singin' (chorus)

Helter skelter in the summer swelter_ the birds flew off with a fallout shelter
MIm RE SOL RE MImEight miles high and falling fast__ it landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass with the jester on the sidelines in a cast_
MIm LAm MIm LAmThe half time air was sweet perfume while the seargeants played a marching tune
DO SOL LA7 DO RE7we all got up to dance___ but we never got the chance. 'Cause
the players tried to take the field, but the marching band refused to yield
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLDo you recall what was revealed _____ the day the music died.
SOL RE7I started singin' (chorus)
. G Am, C Am
And there we were all in one place, A generation lost in space.
With no time left, to start again. So come on, Jack be nimble, jack be quick,
LAm DO MIm LA7 RE7Jack flash sat on a candlestick. 'Cause fire is the devil's only friend.
MIm LAm MIm LAmAnd as I watched him on the stage my hands were clenched in fists of rage.
no angel born in hell__ could break that satan's spell
SOL RE MIm LAm DOAnd as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLI_ saw Satan laughing with delight, the day the music died.
we were singin' (chorus)
I met a girl who sang the blues so
LAm DO MIm REI asked her for some happy news but she just smiled__ and turned away.
SOL RE MIm LAm DOI went down to the sacred store. Where I heard the music years before.__
But the man there said the music wouldn't play.__ And
MIm LAm MIm LAmin the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed.
DO SOL LAm DO REBut not a word was spoken.__ The church__ bells_ all_ were_ broken.
And the three men I admire most: the father, Son and the Holy Ghost__
SOL RE MIm DO RE7 SOL DO SOLThey caught the last train for the coast the day, the music died.
SOL RE7 DO RE7 SOL DO SOLAnd they were singing:(chorus twice, ending: this'll be the day that I die)
