[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
(Fade out)
