What will you leave us this time
Mi           Mi7              La                 Re
You're only dancing on this earth for a short while
                                    Mi
And though your dreams may toss and turn you now
          La       Re             La
They will vanish away like your daddy's best jeans
      Re           La         Re
Denim blue fading up to the sky
               La                    La7
And though you want them to last forever
    Re         Si7    Mi
You know they never will

You know they never will
        Mi                Mi7      Mi      La
And the patches make the goodbye harder still

There'll never be a better chance to change your mind
                                    Mi
And if you want this world to see a better day
         La         Re        La
Will you carry the words of love with you
         Re        La                     Re
Will you ride the great white bird into heaven
               La               La7
And though you want to last forever

You know you never will

You know you never will
        Mi                 Mi7      Mi      La
And the goodbye makes the journey harder still
