G D Em7
A long long time ago
Am C Em D
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
G D Em7
And I know if I had my chance
Am C Em C
That I could make those people dance and maybe they'd be happy for
D
a while
Em Am Em Am
But February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver
C G Am C D
Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step
G D Em Am7 D
I can't remember if I cried when I read about his widowed bride
G D Em
Something touched me deep inside
C D7 G C G
The day the music died
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em
Singin' this will be the day that I die this will be the day that
D7
I die
G Am
Did you write the book of love
C Am Em D
And do you have faith in god above if the bible tells you so
G D Em
Do you believe in rock and roll
Am7 C Em
Can music save your mortal soul and can you teach me how to
A7 D
dance real slow
Em D Em D
Well I know that you're in love with him 'cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym
C G A7 C D7
You both kicked off your shoes man I dig those rhythm and blues
G D Em Am
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and
C
a pickup truck
G D Em C D7 G C G
But I knew I was out of luck the day the music died I started singin'
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em
Singin' this will be the day that I die this will be the day that
D7
I die
G Am
Now for ten years we've been on our own
C Am Em D
and moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be
G D Em
When the jester sang for the king and queen
Am7 C Em
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you
A7 D
and me
Em D Em D
And while the king was looking down the jester stole his thorny crown
C G A7 C D7
The courtroom was adjourned no verdict was returned
G D Em Am C
And while Lenin read a book on Marx the quartet practiced in the park
G D Em C D7 G C G
And we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died we were singin'
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em
Singin' this will be the day that I die this will be the day that
D7
I die
G Am
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
C Am Em
the birds flew off with a fallout shelter eight miles high and
D
fallin' fast
G D Em
It landed foul on the grass
Am7 C Em
the players tried for a forward pass with the jester on the
A7 D
sidelines in a cast
Em D Em
Now at halftime there was sweet perfume while sergeants played a
D
marching Tune
C G A7 C D7
We all got up to dance but we never got the chance
G D Em Am C
Cuz the players tried to take the field the marching band refused to yield
G D Em C D7 G C G
Do you recall what was the feel the day the music died we started singin'
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em
Singin' this will be the day that I die this will be the day that
D7
I die
G Am
And there we were all in one place
C Am Em D
a generation lost in space with no time left to start again
G D Em Am7 C
So come on Jack be nimble Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candle
Em A7 D
stick 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend
Em D Em D
And as I watched him on the stage my hands were clenched in fists of rage
C G A7 C D7
No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell
G D Em Am
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the
C
sacrificial rite
G D Em C D7 G C G
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day the music died he was singin'
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em
Singin' this will be the day that I die this will be the day that
D7
I die
G D Em
I met a girl who sang the blues
Am C Em
And I asked her for some happy news but she just smiled and turned
D
away
G D Em
I went down to the sacred store
Am C Em
Where I'd heard the music years before but the man there said the
C D
music wouldn't play
Em Am Em
But in the streets the children screamed the lovers cried and the
Am
poets dreamed
C G Am C D
But not a word was spoken the church bells all were broken
G D Em Am7 C D7
And the three men I admire most the Father Son and the Holy Ghost
G D Em Am7 D7 G
They caught the last train for the coast the day the music died
D7
And they were singin'
G C G D
So bye bye Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
C D7 G C G
Singin' this will be the day that I die
