hey i learned this song a few years ago and played it at church in memory of my
i hope it does a lot for you as well.
the intro goes like this:
every verse is like this:
[E]its difficult to say [C#m7]goodbye after[A9]
only [Bsus4]one life.
[E]the rain will [C#m7]fall down replenishing[A9]
all of our [Bsus4]broken dreams.
[E]and this burning [C#m7]tree thats withering[A9]
will [Bsus4]burn again. wouldnt you believe?
heres the chorus:
[E]goodbye.[C#m7]
goodbye.[A9]
walk a[Bsus4]way its time to say goodbye. x2
2nd verse:
and now all thats left is pictures on the wall,
memories and stories that are told.
the more often told, the bigger they get.
lets create a legacy, lest we forget.
repeat the chorus, then play:
[Ab5]no longer [A5]can i hold on [F#5]to this defeated [A5]change
in what i am.
[Ab5]its time to [A5]say fare thee well to [F#5]life as we know it.
my [A5]voice it will be,
yes it will be,
you know it will be said.
repeat the intro, then play this with the verse chords:
then something woke me up, in the midst of
dreaming fantasy; halfway there.
but he always fills my cup, and he lifts me up.
o how he lifts me up.
play the chorus, then this outro:
[E]i never took the [C#m7]time to stop and rea[A9]lize
that death takes many [Bsus4]forms even while alive.
during the chords on that outro play this:
[E] [C#m7] [A9] [Bsus4]
at the very end play this and let it ring:
there you go. im not sure if i got all the lyrics right but i know the chords and tabs
god bless!
i hope it does a lot for you as well.
