John Denver – Im Kissing You Goodbye (Guitar)

A                                                              E
oh, at first it was just like heaven in your heart and in your arms

E7                                               A
and paradise discovered in the sweetness of your charms

                                                  E
yes, and every day a miracle to awake and be with you

E7                                                 A
and every night in your embrace another dream come true

                                                    E
but castles sometimes crumble some rivers still run dry

E7                                                         A
and fairy tales are witches tales when the truth becomes a lie"

                                                  E
and a pocket full of promises won't buy a diamond ring

E7                                               A
and every word you said to me just didn't mean a thing

D              E                   A
it's over now, you've gone too far i can't take anymore

D                E                            A
be careful now - don't hurt yourself when you walk through that door

D                  E               A                  D
i can hardly stand to look at you it makes me want to cry

         A                                  E            A
get your tongue out of my mouth because i'm kissing you goodbye!

A                                                        E
now i suppose i'll never know why things turned out this way

E7                                                     A
and why the one you love the most is the one you drove away?

                                                E
yes, and i suppose i'll never, ever really understand

E7                                                   A
how i could think that you'd make me a happy married man

A                                              E
so now i sit and contemplate the reason for it all

E7                                                  A
the climb to heights of ecstasy the failure and the fall

                                                   E
if a broken heart is purposeful it's in the lesson learned

E7                                                 A
no matter what the reason is it hurts when you get burned

D                 E                  A
now i don't care, i don't think i'll ever love again

D                  E                   A
"kemosabe" used to me good and trusted friend

D                     E           A               D
but now it stands for therapy and all the tears i cry

         A                       E                     A
get your tongue out of my mouth 'cause i'm kissing you goodbye!

D    A    E    A
bye, bye. bye, bye.
