Well that could never beeeeeee
GGoodbye don't say Agoodbye
I'd rather Gdie
          A (one downstrum)
Than say goodbyyyyyye
Once so very long ago
Was when I loved you so
If only I had known
That I was blinded by my fate
I traded love for hate
Now I just sit and wait
if you know the song well then you should pick it up fairly quick, basically it's just 
to A except for the odd G
