A
As I sit in this smokey room
C#m
The night about to end
G
I pass my time with strangers
D
But this bottle's my only friend
A
Remember when we used to park
C#m
On Butler Street out in the dark
G
Remember when we lost the keys
D
And you lost more than that in my backseat
A
Remember when we used to talk
C#m
About busting out - we'd break their hearts
G D G D
Together - forever
Chorus:
A C#m
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
G
You and me and my old friends
D
Hoping it would never end
A C#m
Say goodbye, never say goodbye
G
Holdin' on - we got to try
D
Holdin' on to never say goodbye
A
Remember days of skipping school
C#m
Racing cars and being cool
G
With a six pack and the radio
D
We didn't need no place to go
A
Remember at the prom that night
C#m
You and me we had a fight
G
But the band they played our favorite song
D
And I held you in my arms so strong
A
We danced so close
A
We danced so slow
C#m
And I swore I'd never let you go
G D G D
Together - forever
A C#m
Never say goodbye, never say goodbye
G
You and me and my old friends
D
Hoping it would never end
A C#m
Say goodbye, never say goodbye
G
Holdin' on - we got to try
D
Holdin' on to never say goodbye
A
I guess you'd say we used to talk
C#m
About busting out
C#m
We'd break their hearts
G D G D
Together - forever
Good song. Fairly simple. Listen to the CD for timing. 'Nuff said.

Verse (x2) I think Jon plays an acoustic guitar for the verse, but I hear a
lot of keyboard stuff. Well, for you electric players, use a clean tone.
