Goodbye To Love chords by The Carpenters

Tuning: Standard EBGDAE

Difficulty: intermediate


 G (add9)  G  Am7       D7           G    D/F#
I’ll say goodbye to love, No one ever cared if I should live or die
 G       D/F#        B         Em
Time and time again the chance for love has passed me by
 G         Am7      G/B        B7         Em
And all I know of love is how to live without it, I just can’t seem to find
     (Em/D  C)
 it
      G      Am7     G/B            D
So I’ve made my mind up I must live my life alone
     G               Am7      G/B         D
And though its not the easy way I guess I’ve always known.

       G (add9)  G
I’d say goodbye to love
Am7       D7           G    D/F#
There are no tomorrows for this heart of mine
G        D/F#             B            Em
Surely time will lose these bitter memories
       G            Am7            G/B
And Ill find that there is someone to believe in
             B7               Em   (Em/D  C)
and to live for, something I could live for

      G      Am7     G/B            D
All the years of useless search h ave finally reached an end
      G      Am7     G/B            D
Loneliness and empty days will be my only friend
        B7           Em     Am7           D7
From this day love is forgotten, I’ll go on as best I can

      G      Am7     G/B            D
What lies in the future is a mystery to us all
      G      Am7     G/B            D
No one can predict the wheel of fortune as it falls
E           Bm7/E           E6              Bm7/E
There may come a time when I will see that I’ve been wrong
       E          Bm7/E E7        A (add9)  A
But for now this is my song;    And it’s goodbye to love
Bm7/E   A (add9)  A
I’ll say goodbye to love.

Final Stupendous solo
