[Verse 1]
Oh it's Cso long ago but I still remember
The time when we were just fGriends
N.C.
Just two little kids playing in the backyard
Dreaming about cowboys and CIndians
N.C.
And I still recall the day we played football
And you felt flat on your Gface
N.C.
What I didn't know
That my tears of laughter would make you feel so aCshamedC7  
[Chorus]
So Fbye bye Eddie
Bye bye my friend
It so lCong since we talked or made casGtles of sand
But I Dmwon't forget you cause FI think of Gyou now and Cthen
[Verse 2]
When I tChink at that summer, angry dog in that garden
I encouraged you to get the Gball
N.C.
You came running and screaming
N.C.
When you finally got it
You didn't see the little fence at Call
N.C.
Then a couple a years later while we playing football
A neighbor said hear what IG've got to say
N.C.
Did you hear the rumor about Eddie's family
I heard there moving aCwayC7  
[Chorus]
So Fbye bye Eddie

It so lCong since we talked or made castles of sand
But DmI won't forget you cause FI think of Gyou now and tChen
[Verse 3]
One dCay I stopped by and I knocked on your front door
Yeah, I was just fooling Garound
N.C.
When I looked through the window the furniture left there only some stains on the
gCround
One dCay afternoon, half of year later
My mother come to pick me up from scGhool
And when I looked at her face I could tell that I didn't want the CtruthC7

[Intro]

[Verse 1]

Oh it's so long ago but I still remember

The time when we were just friends

N.C.

Just two little kids playing in the backyard

Dreaming about cowboys and Indians

N.C.

And I still recall the day we played football

And you felt flat on your face

N.C.

What I didn't know

C C7

That my tears of laughter would make you feel so ashamed

[Chorus]

So bye bye Eddie

Bye bye my friend

C G

It so long since we talked or made castles of sand

Dm F G C

But I won't forget you cause I think of you now and then

[Verse 2]

When I think at that summer, angry dog in that garden

I encouraged you to get the ball

N.C.

You came running and screaming

N.C.

When you finally got it

You didn't see the little fence at all

N.C.

Then a couple a years later while we playing football

A neighbor said hear what I've got to say

N.C.

Did you hear the rumor about Eddie's family

C C7

I heard there moving away

[Chorus]

So bye bye Eddie

Bye bye my friend

It so long since we talked or made castles of sand

Dm F G C

But I won't forget you cause I think of you now and then

[Verse 3]

One day I stopped by and I knocked on your front door

Yeah, I was just fooling around

N.C.

When I looked through the window the furniture left there only some stains on the

ground

One day afternoon, half of year later

My mother come to pick me up from school

C C7

And when I looked at her face I could tell that I didn't want the truth

Son he died on vacation there no explanation

I'm sorry to tell you your best friend is gone

Dm F G C C7

And with tears in our eyes we walked to your old house that night

Singing bye bye Eddie bye bye my friend

It so long since we talked and made castles of sand

Dm F G C C7

But I won't forget you cause I think of you now and then

Singing bye bye Eddie bye bye my friend

It so long since we talked or made castles of sand

Dm F G C

But I won't forget you cause I think of you now and then

Dm F G C

And maybe one day I will see you again
