[Verse 1]
                          G
Goodbye to you my trusted friend
                                      Am
We've known each other since we were nine or ten
                                  G
Together we've climbed hills and trees
                      Am
Learned of love and ABC's
            D                       G
Skinned our hearts and skinned our knees
 
                               G
Goodbye my friend it's hard to die
                               Am
When all the birds are singing in the sky
                              G
Now that the spring is in the air
                      Am
Pretty girls are everywhere

D                          G
  Think of me and I'll be there
 
 
{ CHORUS }
       G                        Am
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
         D                                               G
But the hills that we'd climbed were just seasons out of time

[Verse 2]
                              G
Goodbye Papa, please pray for me
                              Am
I was the black sheep of the family
                                     G
You've tried to teach me right from wrong
                            Am
Too much wine and too much song
       D           G
Wonder how I got along?
 
                           G
Goodbye Papa it's hard to die
                               Am
When all the birds are singing in the sky
                              G
Now that the spring is in the air
                     Am
Little children everywhere
D                           G
  When you see them I'll be there
 
 
{ CHORUS }
       G                        Am
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        D                                           G
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
 
       Bb                       Cm
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        F                                           Bb
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone

[Verse 3]
                            G
Goodbye Michelle my little one
                               Am
You gave me love and helped me find the sun
                           G
And every time that I was down
          G            Am
You would always come around
           D                G
And get my feet back on the ground
 
                               G
Goodbye Michelle it's hard to die
                               Am
When all the birds are singing in the sky
                           G
Now that spring is in the air
                      Am
With the flowers everywhere
D                              G
  I wish that we could both be there
 
 
[Outro]
       G                        Am
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        D                                               G
But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach
 
       A#                       Cm
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        F                                               Bb
But the stars we could reach were just starfish on the beach
 
       B                        C#m
We had joy, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        F#                                          B
But the wine and the song like the seasons have all gone
 
        B                          C#m
All our lives, we had fun, we had seasons in the sun
        F#                                             B
But the hills that we climbed were just seasons out of time
