Verse 1:
 
D                     A/C#
All your life you've waited
     Bm              F#m
For love to come and stay
    Em               Bm
And now that I have found you
     G              A
You must not slip a-way
   D                 A/C#
I know it's hard be-lieving
     Bm                   F#m
The words you've heard be-fore
    Em                 F#m
But dar-lin' you must trust them
          Asus4 – A
Just once  more
 
 
Chorus:
 
                   D
'Cause baby, good-bye 
F#m               G   A7
Doesn't mean for-ever
                      D
Let me tell you good-bye 
F#m                  G                      A
Doesn't mean we'll never be together a-gain
Bm                 F#m
If you wake up and I'm not there
   G              Gm
I won't be long a-way
             Bm
'Cause the things you do, 
     Em
My goodbye girl
       A               D
Will bring me back to you

D  A/C#  G  A
 
 
Verse 2:
 
D                   A/C#
I know you've been taken
   Bm             F#m
A-fraid to hurt a-gain
     Em                 Bm
You fight the love you feel for me
     G             A
In-stead of givin’ in
     D              A/C#
But, I can wait for-ever
    Bm           F#m
A-helpin’ you to see
     Em              F#m
That I was meant for you
            Asus4 - A
And you for  me
 
 
Chorus 2:
 
                  D
So remember good-bye 
F#m               G   A
Doesn't mean for-ever
                      D
Let me tell you good-bye 
F#m                  G                     A
Doesn't mean we'll never be together again
Bm                  F#m
Though we may be so far apart 
      G                 Gm
You still will have my heart
       Bm                 Em
So for-get your past, my good-bye girl
       A                   D
'Cause now you're home at last
