American Pie - 

-------------------------



  G     D    Em7

A long, long time ago, 



Am            C                Em                   D

I can still remember how that music used to make me smile



    G      D    Em7

And I know if I had my chance,



     Am                 C                Em              C           D

That I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for a while

		

    Em       Am                   Em          Am

But February made me shiver, with every paper I'd deliver



C        G      Am          C                      D

Bad news on the doorstep, I couldn't take one more step



  G          D        Em           Am7            D

I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride



G         D          Em

Something touched me deep inside



    C       D7    G   C   G

The day the music died







CHORUS



   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie



         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        Em                          A7   Em                          D7

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die



 

VERSE



G                 Am      

Did you write the book of love



       C                 Am         Em           D

And do you have faith in god above, if the bible tells you so?



G      D          Em

Do you believe in rock and roll



    Am7            C                     Em                      A7        D

Can music save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to dance real slow?



       Em                  D                     Em              D

Well I know that you're in love with him  'cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym



    C           G        A7           C                    D7

You both kicked off your shoes, man I dig those rhythm and blues



        G      D       Em                   Am                   C

I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck



    G      D     Em              C       D7    G  C  G

But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died, I started singin'





CHORUS



   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie



         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        Em                          A7   Em                          D7

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die







VERSE



         G                   Am              

Now for ten years we've been on our own,

      C                   Am         Em                      D

and moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be

          G      D             Em

When the jester sang for the king and queen 

     Am7                C                   Em                      A7     D

in a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you and me

     Em                  D               Em                 D

And while the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown

     C        G          A7    C             D7

The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned

          G        D    Em               Am                C

And while Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park

    G        D      Em             C         D7     G  C  G

And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died, we were singin'







CHORUS



   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie



         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        Em                          A7   Em                          D7

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die





VERSE



G                   Am

Helter skelter in a summer swelter

C                      Am                  Em                   D

the birds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and fallin' fast

      G   D     Em

It landed foul on the grass

      Am7                C            Em                             A7    D

the players tried for a forward pass, with the jester on the sidelines in

a cast

         Em                D                   Em                  D

Now at halftime there was sweet perfume, while sergeants played a marching

Tune

C          G        A7      C                  D7

We all got up to dance, but we never got the chance

          G      D         Em                 Am              C

'Cuz the players tried to take the field, the marching band refused to yield

    G    D          Em              C        D7       G  C  G

Do you recall what was the feel the day the music died, we started singin'





CHORUS



   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie



         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        Em                          A7   Em                          D7

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die







VERSE



     G                Am

And there we were all in one place,

    C        Am            Em                   D

a generation lost in space, with no time left to start again

            G        D    Em               Am7                 C

So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick, Jack Flash sat on a candle 

       Em                            A7     D

stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend

     Em               D                Em                     D

And as I watched him on the stage, my hands were clenched in fists of rage

   C      G       A7         C                 D7

No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell

           G               D      Em             Am              C

And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrificial rite

       G     D           Em            C      D7     G  C  G

I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died, he was singin'





CHORUS



   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie



         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        Em                          A7   Em                          D7

Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die







LAST VERSE





  G     D        Em

I met a girl who sang the blues



      Am                 C               Em                          D

And I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away



  G         D      Em

I went down to the sacred store

          Am              C                     Em                 C

Where I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music

         D

wouldn't play



    Em                 Am                     Em                   Am

But in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets

dreamed



    C     G        Am          C                     D

But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken

                                     

        G         D   Em             Am7     C            D7

And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost



G               D          Em                Am7     D7    G

They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,



D7

And they were singin'





FINAL CHORUS

   G    C        G        D

So bye, bye Miss American Pie

         G            C            G        D

Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry



         G        C                  G           D

And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye



        C                D7         G   C   G

Singin' this will be the day that I die.
