American Pie[G] - Don MacLean
Some verses removed
A [G] long, [D] long [Em7] time ago, [Am] I can still re-[C]member how
That [Em] music used to [D] make me smile. [D7]
I [G] knew [D] if I [Em7] had my chance that [Am] I could make those [C] people dance
and [Em] maybe they'd be [C] happy for a [D] while.
But [Em] February [Am] made me shiver, [Em] with every paper [Am] I'd deliver,
[C] Bad news [G] on the [Am] doorstep, I [C] couldn't take one [D] more step.
I [G] can't re-[D]member [Em7] if I cried when I [Am] read about his [D] widowed bride,
[G] Something [D] touched me [Em] deep inside, the [C] day, the [D7] music, [G] died.
|[Chorus]
|So [G] Bye - [C] bye, Miss A-[G]merican [D] Pie,
|drove my [G] chevy to the [C] levee but the [G] levee was [D] dry,
|Them [G] good ole' [C] boys were drinkin' [G] whiskey and [D] rye, singin'
|[Em] This'll be the day that I [A7] die, [Em] this'll be the day that I [D] die. [D7]
[G] Did you write the [Am] book of love and do [C] you have faith in [Am] God above,
[Em] if the Bible [D] tells you so? [D7]
Now do [G] you be-[D]lieve in [Em7] rock and roll,
can [Am] music save your [C] mortal soul and
[Em] Can you teach me [A7] how to dance real [D] slow?
Well, I [Em] know that you're in [D] love with him,
`cause I [Em] saw you dancing [D] in the gym.
You [C] both kicked [G] off your [A7] shoes, man I [C] dig those rhythm and [D7] blues.
I was a [G] lonely [D] teenage [Em7] broncin' buck
with a [Am] pink carnation and a [C] pick up truck,
but [G] I knew [D] I was [Em] out of luck the [C] day, the [D7] music, [G] died. [C] [G]
|[Chorus]
|So [G] Bye - [C] bye, Miss A-[G]merican [D] Pie,

|[Em] This'll be the day that I [A7] die, [Em] this'll be the day that I [D] die. [D7]
[G] I met a [D] girl who [Em7] sang the blues and I [Am] asked her for some [C] happy news,
but [Em] she just smiled and [D] turned away. [D7]
[G] I went [D] down to the [Em7] sacred store where I [Am] heard the music [C] years before,
but the [Em] man there said the [C] music wouldn't [D] play.
And [Em] in the streets the [Am] children screamed,
the [Em] lovers cried and the [Am] poets dreamed,
but [C] not a [G] word was [Am] spoken, the [C] church bells all were [D] broken.
And the [G] three men [D] I ad-[Em7]mire most, the [Am] Father, Son and the [D] Holy Ghost,
they [G] caught the [D] last train [Em7] for the coast, the [C] day, the [Am] mu-[D7]sic, [G] died.
[D] And they were singin'....
|[Chorus]
|[G] Bye - [C] bye, Miss A-[G]merican [D] Pie,

Star of the County Down
Traditional
Intro: [Am] [Am] [Am] [Am]
Verse 1:
In [Am] Banbridge Town in the [C] County [G] Down
One [Am] morning [F] last [G] July,
Down a [Am] boreen green came a [C] sweet [G] colleen
And she [Am] smiled as she [G] passed me [Am] by.
She [C] looked so sweet from her [G] two bare feet
To the [Am] sheen of her [F] nut brown [G] hair.
Such a [Am] coaxing elf, sure I [C] shook my [G] self
To make [Am] sure I was [G] really [Am] there.
|[Chorus]
|From [C] Bantry Bay up to [G] Derry Quay and
|From [Am] Galway to [F] Dublin [G] Town,
|No [Am] maid I've seen like the [C] sweet col[G]leen
|That I [Am] met in the [G] County [Am] Down.
Verse 2:
As she [Am] onward sped, sure I [C] shook my [G] head,
And I [Am] gazed with a [F] feelin' [G] rare,
And I [Am] says, says I, to a [C] passer [G]-by,
"Who's the [Am] maid with the [G] nut brown [Am] hair?"
He [C] smiled at me and he [G] says, says he,
"That's the [Am] gem of old [F] Ireland's [G] crown.
That's [Am] Rosie McCann from the [C] banks of the [G] Bann,
She's the [Am] star of the [G] County [Am] Down."
|[Chorus]
|From [C] Bantry Bay up to [G] Derry Quay and
|From [Am] Galway to [F] Dublin [G] Town,
|No [Am] maid I've seen like the [C] sweet col[G]leen
|That I [Am] met in the [G] County [Am] Down
Verse 3:
At the [Am] Harvest Fair she'll be [C] surely [G] there
So I'll [Am] dress in my [F] Sunday [G] clothes,
With my [Am] shoes shone bright and my [C] hat cocked [G] right
For a [Am] smile from my [G] nut brown [Am] rose.
No [C] pipe I'll smoke, no [G] horse I'll yoke
Till my [Am] plough is a [F] rust coloured [G] brown.
Till a [Am] smiling bride by my [C] own fire [G] side
Sits the [Am] star of the [G] County [Am] Down.
|[Chorus]
|From [C] Bantry Bay up to [G] Derry Quay and
|From [Am] Galway to [F] Dublin [G] Town,
|No [Am] maid I've seen like the [C] sweet col[G]leen
|That I [Am] met in the [G] County [Am] Down.
Outro:
