Hello Goodbye

	  		
Intro: B 

B           E               B 
Young James McGill was born alive 
B           E                F# 
The doctors rescuing him with knives 
B             E               B 
But his young mother went and died, 
E            B  E               B 
James he cried, his first goodbye 
E            B  E        F# 
James he cried, Hello Goodbye 
E         B            F#  B  
oo-ooo-ooo-oo-o-oo-o-oo-ooo 
B          E              B 
A doctor came with a blue zeal 
B            E         F# 
then diagnosed the boy surreal 
B               E              B 
They sealed him in a room of steel 
E               B  E             B 
To seal the world, to heal the boy 
E            B     E       F# 
He would no longer have to feel 
E         B            F#  B  
oo-ooo-ooo-oo-o-oo-o-oo-ooo 
B           E                   B 
So built a fortress in his manger 
B             E           F# 
So made a sun made out of paper 
E                B    E            B 
So forged a friend of wind and vapor 
E            B   E               F# 
Oh come on James for godness sake, oh 
E         B            F#  B E         B            F#     B 
oo-ooo-ooo-oo-o-oo-o-oo-ooo-oo-ooo-ooo-oo-o-oo-o-oo-ooo 
E                 B         F#           B 
From a spark to a flame to a fire in the rain 
E               B               F#           B 
To a smolder in sky that brings tear to your eyes 
E                       B              F#          B 
That will stream to the sea, that will burn in the light 
E                     B                F#            B 
That will lift to the clouds what will rain when you die 
E         B         F#       B       
Ladadada, Ladadada, Ladadada Ladadada 
E         B         F#       B 
Ladadada, Ladadada, Ladadada Ladadada 
B 
Then one day, 
B 
Then one day, 
B            E            B 
Then one day old James he died 
B              E                   F#  
His cold heart still his body's white 
B            E              B 
But still he rose up to the sky 
E             B 
He rolled his eyes 
E        B 
Began to cry 
E           B  E         F# 
Hello Goodbye was just a lie 
B               E                    B 
Dear god I hope that the last part's true 
B                E         F# 
For as this song is nearly through 
B             E                B 
One thing for sure can't be the night 
E                 B 
This song will end 
E     B 
Ladadada 
E     B E           F# 
Ladadada, Hello Goodbye 
E         B            F#  B E         B            F#     B

E                 B         F#              B 
From a spark to a flame to a fire in the rain 
E                   B            F#              B 
To a smolder in sky that brings tear to your eyes 
E                   B            F#              B 
That will stream to the sea, that will burn in the light 
E                   B            F#              B 
That will lift to the clouds what will rain when you die 
E         B         F#       B
