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