[Intro]

Am - C - E - E7-2 x2

[Verse]
     Am
Some roads that you take
     C
Some bonds we'll choose to break
  E                        E7
I swore I'd no long be the pallbearer
      Am
But I carried you to bed
   C
So you could rest your head
         E                        E7
You were taking off a load, heavy drinking
    Am
The world it carries on
     C
Your memories in songs
         E                           E7
And your pictures on my wall are not forgotten
          Am
There was hymns that came from mouths
            C
That turned crosses upside down
       E                             E7
But it came through their teeth with great ease

[Chorus]
    F                        C
And all the bobbing heads in sync
    F                     G
And all have got a lot on their minds to think about
    C               F
But you carry on in pictures and in songs
        C
And the unmade be you slept in
        G
Where I laid you down to rest one last time
F             C              F             C
Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend

[Instrumental]
F|-C x2

[Verse]
     Am
Some stories break your heart
    C
And some with such appalle
E                                    E7
Buried deep inside, where it's ok to cry
     Am
Some boy's won't shed a tear
          C
Oh, but a tale like this here
       E                                 E7
It can break me down and get me where it hurts the most

[Chorus]
    F                        C
And all the bobbing heads in sync
    F                     G
And all have got a lot on their minds to think about
    C               F
But you carry on in pictures and in songs
        C
And the unmade be you slept in
        G
Where I laid you down to rest one last time
F             C              F             C
Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend

[Instrumental]
F|-C x2

[Bridge]
    C               F
    You carry on in pictures and in songs
    C
And the unmade be you slept in
        G
Where I laid you down to rest one last time
F             C              F             C
Goodbye, dear friend, Goodbye, dear friend
