American Pie Ver 1 by Madonna
Madonna - American Pie ver 1 guitar tab
This actually the Don McLean version but who cares?
[Verse 1]
G D Em7 Am C
A long, long time ago I can still remember how
Em D
that music used to make me smile
G D Em7
And I knew if I had my chance
Am C
that I could make those people dance and
Em C D
maybe they'd be happy for a while.
Em Am Em Am
But February made me shiver with every paper I'd deliver
C G Am C D
Bad news on the doorstep I couldn't take one more step
G D Em Am7 D
I can't remember if I cried, when I read about his widowed bride
G D Em
But something touched me deep inside
C D7 G C G D
The day the music died.
So...
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
[Verse 2]
G Am C Am
Did you write the book of love and do you have faith in God above?
Em D
If the Bible tells you so.
G D Em
And do you believe in Rock 'n Roll?
Am7 C
And can music save your mortal soul?
Em A7 D
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?
Em D Em D
Well, I know that you're in love with him �cause I saw you dancing in the gym
C G A7 C D7
You both kicked off your shoes. Man, I dig those rythmny blues.
G D Em Am C
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck with a pink carnation and a pickup truck.
G D Em
But I knew I was out of luck
C D7 G C G D
The day the music died I started singin'
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
[Verse 3]
G Am C Am
Now for ten years we've been on our own and moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
Em D
But that's not how it used to be
G D Em
When the jester sang for the King and Queen
Am7 C
In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
Em A7 D
And a voice that came from you and me
Em Am Em Am
And while the King was looking down, the jester stole his thorny crown
C G A7 C D7
The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned
G D Em Am C
And while Lennon read a book of Marx, the court kept practice in the park
G D Em
And we sang dirges in the dark
C D7 G C G D
The day the music died. We were singing
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
[Verse 4]
G D Em C Am
Oh, and there we were all in one place a generation lost in space
Em D
With no time left to start again
G D Em Am7 C
So come on, Jack be nimble Jack be quick Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
Em A7 D
�cause fire is the Devil's only friend
Em D Em D
Oh, and as I watched him on the stage my hands were clenched in fists of rage
C G A7 C D7
No angel born in hell could break that Satan's spell
G D Em Am C
And as the flames climbed high into the night to light the sacrifical rite
G D Em
I saw Satan laughing with delight
C D7 G C G D
The day the music died and he was singing
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
[Verse 5]
G D Em C Am
I met a girl who sang the blues and I asked her for some happy news
Em D
But she just smiled and turned away
G D Em Am7 C
I went down to the sacred store where I'd heard the music years before
Em A7 D
But the man there said the music woudn't play
Em D Em D
And in the streets the children screamed the lovers cried and the poets dreamed
C G A7 C D7
But not a word was spoken the church bells all were broken
G D Em Am C
And three men I admire most the father, son and the Holy Ghost
G D Em
They caught the last train for the coast
C D7 G C G D
The day the music died. And they were singing
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
They were singing
[Chorus]
G C G D
Bye, bye! Miss American Pie
G C G D
Drove my chevy to the levy, but the levy was dry
G C G D
And them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
Em A7 Em D7 G
Singin' this'll be the day that I die, this'll be the day that I die.
