Seasons in the Sun – Terry Jacks

Good-bye 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 and А В Сs,

Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees.

Good-bye my friend, it’s hard to die
Am
When all the birds are singing in the sky.

Now that the Spring is in the air
Am
Pretty girls are ev’rywhere.
D G
Think of me and I’ll be there.

We had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun
D D7 G
But the hills we would climb were just seasons out of time

Good-bye, Papa, please pray for me.

Too much wine and too much song,

Wonder how I got along.
