Lyrics

(CN.C.)How do I

say good bye

to what we had?

The (A)good times

that made us (E)laugh

out weigh the bad.

I thought we’d (E)get

to see for (G#7)ev er,

but for (C#m)ev er’s (E)gone a way.

It’s so (E)hard

to say good bye

to yes ter day.

I don’t know

where this (Bsus)road

is (A)go ing to (Am)lead;

all I (A)know

is where we’ve (E)been

and what we have been through.

If we (E)get

to see to (G#7)mor row,

I (C#m)hope it’s worth (E)all the (B)wait.

It’s so (E)hard

to say good bye

to yes ter day.

And I’ll take

with me the (G#)mem o ries

to (C#m)be my sun shine

af ter the (A)rain.

It’s so (E)hard

to say good bye

to yes ter day.

And I’ll take

with me the (G#7)mem o ries

to (C#m)be my sun shine

(CN.C.)af ter the (Am)rain.

It’s so (E)hard

to say good bye

to yes ter day.

It’s so hard

to say good bye

to yes ter day.
