Goodbye World, Goodbye
C F C C F C
I told all my troubles goodbye. Goodbye to each tear and each sigh.
G C A D7 G
This world where I roam cannot be my home; I’m bound for that land in the sky.
C F C C F C
I walk and I talk with my Lord. I feast every day on His Word.
G C A D7 G C F C
Heaven is near and I can’t stay here; Goodbye, world, goodbye
E
Now don’t you weep for me when I’m gone,
Am
’cause I won’t have to leave here alone.
D
And when I hear that last trumpet sound,
G
my feet won’t stay on the ground.
C F C
I’m gonna rise with a shout, gonna fly;
C F C
I’m gonna ride with my Lord through the sky.
G C A
Heaven is near and I can’t stay here;
D G C F C G
Goodbye, world, goodbye
C F C C F C
I won’t have the blues anymore when I step across to that shore
G C A D7 G
And I’ll never pine for I’ll leave behind my heartaches and tears evermore
C F C C F C
A day, maybe two, then goodbye; tomorrow, I’ll rise up and fly.
G C A D7 G C F C
Heaven is near and I can’t stay here; goodbye, world, goodbye
