If I Csay goodbye, the nation learns to move Don
It outlives me when I’m GgoneBb  
Like the Cscripture says:
C#mEveryone shall sit under their Eown vine and Dsus2fig A/DtreeA  
And Eno one shall make them aF#mfraid.”
They’ll be Esafe in the nation Dwe’ve madeA  E  F#m

A moment Ealone in the F#mshade
At Ehome in this nDation we’ve made
One last Atime
[HAMILTON]
One last timeG  A  
Break Section 1:
[HAMILTON & WASHINGTON]
DThough, in reAviewing the incidents of my admGinistration,
I am unGmconscious of intentional error, I am Dnevertheless
Too sensible Aof my defects not to think it Gprobable that
I may have Gmcommitted many errors.
DI shall also carry Awith me the hope that my Gcountry will
View them with Gmindulgence; And that
DAfter forty-five Ayears of my life Gdedicated to its service with an Gmupright zeal
The Dfaults of incompetent abilities will be
Consigned to Aoblivion, as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest
Break Section 2:
DI anticipate with pleasing expectation Cthat retreat in which I promise myself
To realize Dthe sweet enjoyment of partaking, Cin the midst of my fellow-citizens,
The Dbenign influence of good laws Under a Cfree government, the ever-favorite object
Of my Gheart, and the Dhappy reward, Cas I trust
Of our Gmutual cares, Bblabors, and dangers.C  
One last Dtime
Outro:
[ALL WOMEN]
George Washington’s going Chome!
[HAMILTON]
Teach ‘em how to Dsay goodbye
[COMPANY]
George Washington’s going Chome!
[WASHINGTON & COMPANY]
You and I D(George Washington’s going ChomGe)
Going Dhome (George Washington’s going ChomGe)
History has its Deyes on you (George Washington’s going ChomGe)
We’re gonna Bmteach ‘em how to say goodbye! (Teach them how to say goodbye)
ATeach ‘em how to say goodbye! (Teach them how)
To Gsay goodbye! (Say goodbye!)
Say goodbye! (Say goodbye!)
BbOne last time!D  Dsus4  C  G  D
