Lyrics

When I got the news to day,

I did n’t know but the what to say.

And so I just hung up the phone.

I took a walk to clear my head, and this is where the walk in’ led.

Can’t be lieve you’re real ly gone.

Don’t feel like go in’ home.

So I’m gon na (Ab)set right here

on the (Eb)edge of this pier

and watch the sun set

dis ap pear,

and drink a beer.

Fun ny how the good ones go

I too n’t soon, but the good Lord knows

And so the rea sons why, I guess.

And some a times the great er plan

is kind a hard to un der stand.

Can’t Right now it don’t make sense.

I can’t it all make sense.

So I’m gon na (Ab)set right here on the (Eb)edge of this pier

and watch the sun set

dis ap pear,

and drink a beer.

So long,

my friend,

un til we (Fm7)meet

(Eb)a gain.

I’ll re mem

ber you

and (Fm7)all the times

that (Db)we used (Db)to

And drink a beer,

and drink a beer,

yeah.
