C G
I woke up in the morning, heard a mockingbird sing
D
Was he laughing at me?
C G
I went to the basin, washed the sleep out my eyes
D
So I could see
C G
A note on the bed close to where my lover should be
D
She slipped away in the night
C G
The writing was shaky and with tears on the sheets
D
I'm sorry we had a fight
CHORUS:
C G D
So, farewell sweet lover, farewell
C G D
I'm sorry we never said goodbye
C G D
So, farewell sweet lover, farewell
C G D C G D
Left with a tear in your eye
C
Must've been brewing for a very long time
G D
In the wardrobe the hangers are bare
C
Don't know how you did it, it must've been planned
G D
You even took your favourite chair
CHORUS:
C G D
So, goodbye my lady, goodbye

You won't find no tear in my eye
C G D
So, goodbye my lady, goodbye
C G D G
Going out tonight to get high
