Tom : A
(A C#m D B)(x2)
A
Well I came by your house the other day
C#m
Your Mother said you went away
D
She said there was nothing that I could have done
B
There was nothing nobody could say
A
Me and you we've known each other
C#m
Ever since we were sixteen
D
I wished I would have known, I wished I could've called you
B A C#m D B
Just to say goodbye Bobby Jean
A
Now you hung with me when all the others
C#m
Turned away, turned up their nose
D
We liked the same music, we liked the same bands
B
We liked the same clothes
A
We told each other that we were the wildest
C#m
The wildest things we'd ever seen
D
Now I wished you would have told me, I wished I could have talked to you
B A C#m D B
Just to say goodbye Bobby Jean
D
Now we went walking in the rain
F#m
Talking about the pain that from the world we hid
D A E
Now there aint nobody nowhere nohow gonna ever understand me the way you did
A
Maybe you'll be out there on that road somewhere
C#m
In some bus or train travelling along
D
In some motel room you'll hear a radio playing
B
And you'll hear me sing this song
A
Well if you do you'll know I'm thinking of you
C#m
And all the miles in between
D
And I'm just calling one last time
B
Not to change your mind
D E A C#m D B
But just to say I miss you baby, good luck, goodbye Bobby Jean
