[Intro]
D5 A5 F#5
[Verse 1]
D5 A5 Buffalo once roamed E5 The great expanse of our country D5 A5 E5 Now they stand in the sandbox in the corner of the city
[Pre-Chorus]
D5 A5 F#5 We had our picnics in the park, watching the bison mope D5 A5 Once a proud and noble beast E5 Now the butt of our bad jokes
[Chorus]
B5 A5 B5 A5 B5 You saw me off at the station D5 C5 D5 C5 D5 In your leopard print coat and hat A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 It was a cliché, we had to laugh E5 Waving at me as I left B5 A5 B5 A5 B5 But the laughter made us sadder D5 C5 D5 C5 D5 Than the leaving could have had A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 In a flash I cried E5 E5 D5 E5 D5 E5 D5 E5 Oh, goodbye, girl of mine
[Interlude]
D5 A5 D5 F#5
[Verse 2]
D5 When it came time for me to go A5 E5 The buffalo had the last laugh D5 A5 Waiting at the gate E5 They sneered, they strut, they prance
[Pre-Chorus]
D5 A5 F#5 How did I know I thought a thing like that? D5 A fling was only fleeting A5 E5 An instant in the distant past B5 Made to end, not made to last
[Chorus]
B5 A5 B5 A5 B5 You saw me off at the station D5 C5 D5 C5 D5 In your leopard print coat and hat A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 It was a cliché, we had to laugh E5 Waving at me as I left B5 A5 B5 A5 B5 But the laughter made us sadder D5 C5 D5 C5 D5 Than the leaving could have had A5 G5 A5 G5 A5 In a flash I cried E5 Oh, goodbye, girl of mine
[Outro]
B5 What a time, a time to remember D5 Something that good can't last forever A5 E5 But now I wonder if it might have after all B5 As the train pulled away, it hit me D5 What I really would be missing A5 Leaving was not as bitter or sweet E5 As laughter could be
