    CHORUS

    G C G DSo bye, bye Miss American Pie

    G C G DDrove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry

    G C G DAnd them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye

    Em A7 Em D7Singin' this will be the day that I die, this will be the day that I die

    VERSE

    G AmNow for ten years we've been on our own,

    C Am Em Dand moss grows fat on a rolling stone but that's not how it used to be

    G D EmWhen the jester sang for the king and queen

    Am7 C Em A7 Din a coat he borrowed from James Dean in a voice that came from you and me

    Em D Em DAnd while the king was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown

    C G A7 C D7The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned

    G D Em Am CAnd while Lenin read a book on Marx, the quartet practiced in the park

    G D Em C D7 G C GAnd we sang dirges in the dark the day the music died, we were singin'

    G AmHelter skelter in a summer swelterC Am Em Dthe birds flew off with a fallout shelter, eight miles high and fallin' fast

    G D EmIt landed foul on the grass

    Am7 C Em A7 Dthe players tried for a forward pass, with the jester on the sidelines inA cast

    G D EmI met a girl who sang the blues

    Am C Em DAnd I asked her for some happy news, but she just smiled and turned away

    G D Em

    I went down to the sacred storeAm C Em CWhere I'd heard the music years before, but the man there said the music

    Dwouldn't play

    Em Am Em AmBut in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poetsdreamed

    C G Am C DBut not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken

    G D Em Am7 C D7

    And the three men I admire most, the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost

    G D Em Am7 D7 GThey caught the last train for the coast the day the music died,

    D7And they were singin'

    Lyrics

    Verse 1You can the peanut butter to jellyYou can be the butterflies I feel in my bellyYou can can be the captain, I can be your first mateYou can be the chills that I feel on our first date

    You can be the hero, I can be your sidekickYou can be the tear that I cry if we ever splitYou can be the rain from the cloud when it's stormin'

    We're the perfect twoWe're the perfect twoBaby, me and youWe're the perfect two

    Verse 2You can be the prince and I can be your princessYou can be the sweet tooth, I can be the dentistYou can be the shoes and I can be the lacesYou can be the heart that I spill on the pages

    You can be the vodka and I can be the chaserYou can be the pencil and I can be the paper

    You can be as cold as the winter weatherBut I don't care as long as we're together
