Primeiro acorde: G 11 acordes identificados
G C Em
A long long time ago...
Am Em
I can still remember
How that music used to make me smile
And I knew if I had my chance
That I could make those people dance
And maybe they?d be happy for a while
But february made me shiver
With every paper I?d deliver.
Em C D
Bad news on the doorstep
C D Same for all the verses.
I couldn?t take one more step
I can?t remember if I cried
When I read about his widowed bride
G D/F# Em
But something touched me deep inside
C D G
The day the music died
So bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D (D9 D D4 D D9 D)
This?ll be the day that I die
G D/F# Em
Did you write the book of love
And do you have faith in God above
Em D (D4 D D9 D)
If the Bible tells you so?
Do you believe in rock ?n roll
Can music save your mortal soul
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Well I know that you?re in love with him
`cause I saw you dancin? in the gym
You both kicked off your shoe
Man I dig those rhythm and blues
I was a lonely teenage broncin? buck
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
But I knew I was out of luck
The day the music died
I started singin?
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D (D9 D D4 D D9 D)
This?ll be the day that I die
Now for ten years we?ve been on our own
And moss grows fat on a rollin? stone
But that?s not how it used to be
When the jester sang for the king and queen
In a coat he borrowed from james dean
And a voice that came from you and me
Oh and while the king was looking down
The jester stole his thorny crown
The courtroom was adjourned
C D
No verdict was returned
And while lenin read a book of marx
The quartet practiced in the park
And we sang dirges in the dark
The day the music died
We were singing
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D (D9 D D4 D D9 D)
This?ll be the day that I die
G D/F# Em
Helter skelter in a summer swelter
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter
Em D
Eight miles high and falling fast
G D/F# Em
It landed foul on the grass
The players tried for a forward pass
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
While the sergeants played a marching tune
C Em7/B Am
We all got up to dance
Oh but we never got the chance!
`cause the players tried to take the field
Am C
The marching band refused to yield
G D/F# Em
Do you recall what was revealed
The day the music died?
We started singing
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D (D9 D D4 D D9 D)
This?ll be the day that I die
Oh and there we were all in one place
Am C
A generation lost in space
With no time left to start again
So come on: jack be nimble jack be quick!
Am C
Jack flash sat on a candlestick
Cause fire is the devil?s only friend
Oh and as I watched him on the stage
My hands were clenched in fists of rage
C Em7/B Am
No angel born in hell
Could break that satan?s spell
And as the flames climbed high into the night
Am C
To light the sacrificial rite
I saw satan laughing with delight
The day the music died
He was singing
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D
This?ll be the day that I die
G D/F# Em
I met a girl who sang the blues
And I asked her for some happy news
Em D (D4 D D9 D)
But she just smiled and turned away
G D/F# Em
I went down to the sacred store
Where I?d heard the music years before
Em Am D
But the man there said the music wouldn?d play
Em D
And in the streets: the children screamed
Em D
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
C Em7/B Am
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
G D/F# Em
And the three men I admire most
The father son and the holy ghost
G D/F# Em
They caught the last train for the coast
C D G
The day the music died
And they were singing
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
And them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? this?ll be the day that I die
Em D (D9 D D4 D D9 D )
This?ll be the day that I die
They were singing
G C G D
Bye-bye miss american pie
Drove my chevy to the levee
But the levee was dry
Them good old boys were drinkin? whiskey and rye
Singin? This?ll be the day that I d--i--e!! (The Best!!)
