Verse 1
(G major) A long, long time (E minor) ago,
I (A minor) can still remember
How (C major) that (E minor) music used to make (D major) me smile
And I (G major) knew that if I had (E minor) my chance
I (A minor) could make those people dance
(C major) And (E minor) maybe they'd be
happy for (C major) a while (D major)
Did (G major) you write the (A minor) book of love
and do you (C major) have faith in (A minor) God above?
(E minor) If the Bible tell (D major) s you so
Now do you (G major) believe in (E minor) rock and roll
And can (A minor) music save your (C major) mortal soul?
Can (E minor) you teach me how (A major) to
dance real (D major) slow?
Well I know (E minor) that you're in love (D major) with him
Cause I (E minor) saw you dancing in (D major) the gym
You both (C major) picked (G major) out the shoes (A minor)
Then I (C major) did those rhythm and blues
(D major) I was a (G major) lonely teen (B minor) age broncon (E minor) buck
With a (A minor) pink carnation and a (C major) pickup truck
But I (G major) knew that (D major) I was out (E minor) of luck
The day (C major) the mu (D major) sic died (G major)
(C major) I (G major) started singing, (D major) (G major) bye -bye, (C major)
Miss Amer (G major) ican Pie
(D major) I drove my (G major) Chevy to the (C major) levee,
but the (G major) levee was dry
(D major) And (G major) good old boys (C major) were
drinking whis (G major) key and rye
(D major) Singing, (E minor) this will be the day that I (A major) die
This (E minor) will be the day that I (D major) die
(B minor) (D major) (C major) (D major) (B minor) (D major)
I (G major) met a girl who sang (A minor) the blues
And I (C major) asked her for some (A minor) happy news
She'd (E minor) just smile and (D major) turn away
Well, I went (G major) down to the secret (E minor) store
Where I'd (A minor) heard the music
years (C major) before
But the (E minor) madman said the (A major) music
would've paid (D major)
Well, now in (E minor) the streets
the chil (D major) dren scream
The lov (E minor) ers cried and the (D major) poets dreamed
But (C major) not a (G major) word was spoken (A minor)
As the (C major) church bells all were broken (D major)
And the (G major) three men I admire (E minor) the most
The (A minor) Father, Son, and the (C major) Holy Ghost
They (G major) caught the (D major) last train
for (E minor) the coast today
(C major) The mu (D major) sic died (G major) (C major)
We (G major) started singing, (D major) (G major) bye -bye, (C major)
Miss Amer (G major) ican Pie
(D major) Drove my (G major) Chevy to the (C major) levee,
but the (G major) levee was dry
(D major) And (G major) good old boys
(C major) were drinking whis (G major) key and pie
(D major) Singing, (E minor) this'll be the day that I die (A major)
This'll (E minor) be the day that I die (D major) (G major) (C major)
(G major) I drove (D major) my (G major) Chevy to the (C major) levee,
but the (G major) levee was tied
(D major) And (G major) good old boys (C major) were drinking
whis (G major) key and pride
(D major) Singing this (E minor) will be the day that I (A major) die
This (E minor) will be the day that I (D major) die
We star (B minor) ted singing (D major) (A major) (D major)
We (B minor) started singing (D major)
