I'M KISSING YOU GOODBYE
Words & Music by John Denver
[Verse 1]
Aoh, at first it was just like heaven in your heart and in your Earms
E7and paradise discovered in the sweetness of your Acharms
yes, and every day a miracle to awake and be with Eyou
E7and every night in your embrace another dream come Atrue
but castles sometimes crumble some rivers still run Edry
E7and fairy tales are witches tales when the truth becomes a Alie"
and a pocket full of promises won't buy a diamond Ering
E7and every word you said to me just didn't mean a Athing
Dit's over now, Eyou've gone too far Ai can't take anymore
Dbe careful now - Edon't hurt yourself when you Awalk through that door
Di can hardly stand Eto look at you iAt makes me want to Dcry
get your Atongue out of my mouth because i'm Ekissing you gAoodbye!
[Verse 2]
Anow i suppose i'll never know why things turned out this Eway
E7and why the one you love the most is the one you drove Aaway?
yes, and i suppose i'll never, ever really underEstand
E7how i could think that you'd make me a happy married Aman
Aso now i sit and contemplate the reason for it Eall
E7the climb to heights of ecstasy the failure and the Afall
if a broken heart is purposeful it's in the lesson Elearned
E7no matter what the reason is it hurts when you get Aburned
Dnow i don't care, Ei don't think i'll Aever love again
D"kemosabe" used to Eme good and trusted Afriend
Dbut now it stands for Etherapy and Aall the tears i Dcry
get your Atongue out of my mouth 'Ecause i'm kissing you Agoodbye!
Dbye, Abye. Ebye, Abye.
