[Verse 1]
[D]Oh [Bm]all t[F#m]he mon[A]ey[D][A][D]
that in my [Bm]whole life [G]I did s[D]pend,
Be it [A]mine [Bm]right or [D]wrongfully,
I let it slip [Bm]gladly [G]past the hands of
[Bm]my friends[D]
[A]To tie up the time
[D]most forcefully.
But the bottles [G]are [D]done,
We've killed each one
And the [Bm]table's [G]full and over
[D]flowed.
[Bm]And the corner [G]sig[Bm]n
[D]Says it'[G]s closing tim[Bm]e,
[D]So I'll bid far[Bm]ewell and[F#m] be
[A]down [D]the [F#m]road.[A][D]

[Verse 2]
[D]Oh [A]ev'ry [D]girl [Bm]that ever I've [D]touched,
[A]I did not do i[D]t harmfully.
And [A]ev'ry [D]girl [Bm]that [G]ever [Bm]I've [D]hurt,
I [A]did not do [D]it knowin'ly.
But to remain as friends and make amends
You need the [Bm]time and
[G]stay [D]behind.
And since my [G]feet are [D]now fast
And point [Bm]away [G]from [D]the past,
I'll bid [Bm]farewell [F#m]and be[A]
[D]down the line.
[F#m][A][D]

[Verse 3]
[D]Oh [A]ev'ry [D]foe [Bm]that [G]ever [Bm]I fac[D]ed,
The [A]cause was there before [D]we came.
And [A]ev'ry [D]cause [Bm]that [G]ever [Bm]I foug[D]ht,
I [A]fought it full without re[D]gret or shame.
But the dark [G]does [D]die
As the curtain [G]is [D]drawn and
[Bm]somebody's [F#m]eyes
[G]Must meet [D]the dawn.
And [Bm]if I [G]see [D]the day
I'd [G]only have to [D]stay,
So I'll bid [Bm]farewell [F#m]in the nig[A]ht
and [D]be gone.[F#m][A][D]
Oh, [A]ev'ry

[Verse 4]
[D]thought that's strung
a [G]knot in [Bm]my mind,
[D]I mig[A]ht go insane if it couldn't
[D]be sprung.
But it's not to stand naked [Bm]un
der unknowin' eye[D]s,
It's [A]for myself and my friends
my [D]stories are sung.
But the time [G]ain't [D]tall,
Yet on time you depend [Bm]an
d no word is [F#m]possessed
[G]By no [D]special friend.
And [Bm]though the line is [D]cut,
It ain't [G]quite the [D]end,
I'll just bid [Bm]farewell [F#m]till we
[A]meet [D]again.
[F#m][A][D]

[Verse 5]
Oh a false [A]clock [D]tries [Bm]to tick [G]out [Bm]my time
[D]To disgra[A]ce, distract,
and bother [D]me.
And the [A]dirt of [D]gossip [Bm]blows
[G]into my [D]face,
And the [A]dust of rumors covers [D]me.
But if the arrow is straight
And the point is slick,
It [Bm]can pierce [F#m]through [G]dust no
matter [D]how thick.
[Bm]So I'll [G]make my [D]stand
And remain [G]as [Bm]I am[D]
And bid [Bm]farewell [F#m]and not[A]
[D]give a damn.[F#m][A][D]
