Chords with lyrics

Tuning: Standard (E MajorE A augmentedA D MajorD G+G BB E MajorE)

Verse 1:
      D MajorD
1, 2, 3 goodbye

I love you more in death
             A augmentedA
Than I ever could in life
       D MajorD
1, 2, 3 all sigh

When the dollar is young
          A augmentedA
And the year is new
           E MajorE
Me and the full wolf moon
     D MajorD A augmentedA
Will be over you
        D MajorD
Unto the nighttime

I dream for you
              A augmentedA
12 sparrows pretty in a row
      D MajorD
1 and 23 eyes open

To the risen scarecrow
            A augmentedA
With his mind full blown
             E MajorE
Down those hay-lined roads
      D MajorD   A augmentedA
To his farmer's throne


Chorus:
     D MajorD      A augmentedA
It was happy, 1, 2, 3
     E MajorE     A augmentedA
It was sad, 1, 2, 3
      D MajorD        A augmentedA
We were happy once you and me
       E MajorE
When we were sad


Verse 2:
A augmentedA       D MajorD
Once upon a time

We were happy in the bathtub
            A augmentedA
In the abacus of the rain
        D MajorD
Once upon a time

We take our laughter to the blackboard
            A augmentedA
With a calculus of pain
                  E MajorE
And with good news from the weather vein
         D MajorD   A augmentedA
We'll go our separate ways

 Chorus:
     D MajorD     A augmentedA
It was happy, 1, 2, 3
     E MajorE     A augmentedA
It was sad, 1, 2, 3
      D MajorD        A augmentedA
We were happy once you and me
       E MajorE
When we were sad
A augmentedA        D MajorD
Once in a lifetime

When the dollar is young
          A augmentedA
And the year is new
       D MajorD
Once in a lifetime

Will the undoing of two souls
        A augmentedA
Be so easy to do
         E MajorE
Like it was for me
     D MajorD    A augmentedA
Like it was for you
     D MajorD     A augmentedA
It was happy, 1, 2, 3
     E MajorE     A augmentedA
It was sad, 1, 2, 3
      D MajorD         A augmentedA
We were happy once you and me
       E MajorE
When we were sad
A augmentedA      D MajorD    A augmentedA
1, 2, 3 goodbye, goodbye
      D MajorD    A augmentedA
1, 2, 3 goodbye, goodbye
          D MajorD    A augmentedA
Ready, 1, 2, 3 goodbye, goodbye
          D MajorD    A augmentedA
Steady, 1, 2, 3 goodbye, goodbye
            D MajorD    A augmentedA
Nice to know you, 3 goodbye, goodbye
               D MajorD    A augmentedA
It's nice to meet you, 3 goodbye, goodbye
              D MajorD  A augmentedA
Are you ready, 1, 2, 3 goodbye
