[C5]And you know the [F]sun's setting fast
And [C5]just like they say, nothing [G]good ever lasts
[C5]Well go on now, and [F]kiss it goodbye
But hold [C5]on to your lover, 'cause your [G]heart's bound to die
[C5]Go on now, and [F]say goodbye to [C5]our town, to [G]our town
[C5]Can't you see the [F]sun setting down on [C5]our town,
on [G]our town, Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G]
[C5]Up the street beside the [F]red neon light
That's [C5]where I met my baby on one [G]hot summer night
[C5]He was the tender and I [F]ordered a beer
It's [C5]been forty years and I'm [G]still sitting here
[C5]But you know the [F]sun's setting fast
And [C5]just like they say, nothing [G]good ever lasts
[C5]Go on now, and [F]kiss it goodbye
But hold [C5]on to your lover, 'cause your [G]heart's bound to die
[C5]Go on now, and [F]say goodbye to [C5]our town, to [G]our town
[C5]Can't you see the [F]sun setting down on [C5]our town,
on [G]our town, Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G]
It's [C5]here I had my babies and I [F]had my first kiss
I've [C5]walked down Main Street on the [G]cold morning mist
[C5]Over there is where I [F]bought my first car
It [C5]turned over once, but then it [G]never went far
[C5]And I can see the [F]sun's setting fast
And [C5]just like they say, nothing [G]good ever lasts
[C5]Well go on now, and [F]kiss it goodbye
But hold [C5]on to your lover, 'cause your [G]heart's bound to die
[C5]Go on now, and [F]say goodbye to [C5]our town, to [G]our town
[C5]Can't you see the [F]sun setting down on [C5]our town,
on [G]our town, Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G]
I [C5]buried my Mama and I [F]buried my Pa
They [C5]sleep up the street beside the [G]pretty brick wall
[C5]I bring 'em flowers a-[F]bout every day
But I [C5]just gotta cry when I [G]think what they'd say
[C5]If they could see how the [F]sun's setting fast
And [C5]just like they say, nothing [G]good ever lasts
[C5]Well go on now, and [F]kiss it goodbye
But hold [C5]on to your lover, 'cause your [G]heart's bound to die
[C5]Go on now, and [F]say goodbye to [C5]our town, to [G]our town
[C5]Can't you see the [F]sun setting down on [C5]our town,
on [G]our town, Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G]
Now I [C5]set on the porch and watch the [F]lightning bugs fly
But I [C5]can't see too good, I got [G]tears in my eyes
I'm [C5]leaving tomorrow, but I [F]don't wanna go
I [C5]love you, my town, you'll always [G]live in my soul
[C5]But I can see the [F]sun setting fast
And [C5]just like they say, nothing [G]good ever lasts
[C5]Well go on, I gotta [F]kiss you goodbye
But I [C5]hold to my lover, 'cause my [G]heart's bound to die
[C5]Go on now, and [F]say goodbye to [C5]my town, to [G]my town
[C5]I can see the [F]sun has gone down on [C5]my town,
on [G]my town,
Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G]
Good-[C5]night [F] [C5] [G] [C5]
