Goodbye to Old Missoula by Willis Alan Ramsey
(capo up 2 frets to match CD and LP. Remember what an LP is? Cool.)
A A7
Searchin' for the sunlight
Bm7 A
On this winter's day
A C#m F#m A
But here in Old Missoula
Bm7 E
They've thrown the sun away
A A7
Come tomorrow morning
Bm7 A
I'm headed for the Bozeman Round
A C#m F#m E A C Bm A
And it's goodbye to Old Missoula, sleepy town
A A7
I met a girl named Rosie
Bm7 A
Sweet as she could be
A C#m F#m A
But I guess that Rosie
Bm7 E
She didn't have eyes for me
A A7
Time waits for no one
Bm7 A
Lord, why did I hesitate?
A C#M F#m E A C Bm A
And it's goodbye to Old Missoula, a day too late
Refrain:
E A
Clouds hang on the mountain
E A
They make me lonesome inside
C#m F#m
And these four walls surround me
Bm7 E
Leaving no place to hide
Harmonica (last 3 lines of a verse)
A A7
Goodbye Rosie you'll never know
Bm7 A
Time tells my love will pass
C#m F#m A
But if I just remember your smilin' face
Bm7 E
That's all of time that I ask
A A7
Show in this town is over
Bm7 A
Maybe just never began
A C#m F#m E A C Bm A
And it's goodbye to Old Missoula, done all that I can
A C#m F#m A C#m F#m
And it's goodbye to Old Missoula, goodbye to Old Missoula
A C#m F#m E A C Bm A
Goodbye to Old Missoula, sleepy town
