[Verse]
C F C
Her heart was shattered by the cruel things he said
D G
She went right for his pride, and ripped it to shreds
C
He said, "I never really loved you"
F C
She said, "I don't really care"
G C
Lord you'd never even know love ever lived there
NC C
It's just your basic goodbye
F G
Good bye
C
Just your average fare well
F
To what you thought would be the greatest love you'd ever known
G
Fare well
F G F#
Some body's settin' fire to a bridge tonight
F G F#
It's front row at an Ali/Fr azier fight
F G
Barnum & Bailey shoulda bought the rights
C
Just your basic good bye
C F C
When you first fall in love it's forever time
D G
Then one day it happens and you don't know why
C
Sweet nothings turn into
F
Such mean bitter words
G C
And insults start flyin' like you've never heard
[Repeat Chorus]
[Fiddle Solo]
C
Just your average fare well
F
To what you thought would be the greatest love you'd ever known
G
Fare well
F G F#
Some body's settin' fire to a bridge tonight
F G F#
It's front row at an Ali/Fr azier fight
F G
Barnum & Bailey shoulda bought the rights
C
Just your basic good bye
