Hollies - Hello Lady Goodbye CAPO: 2nd Fret INTRO: I woke up in the morning heard a mockingbird sing Was he laughing at me? I went to the basin washed the sleep out my eyes So I could see A note on the bed close to where my lover should be She slipped away in the night The writing was shaky and with tears on the sheets I’m sorry we had a fight CHORUS: So farewell sweet lover farewell I’m sorry we never said goodbye So farewell sweet lover farewell Left with a tear in your eye Must’ve been brewing for a very long time In the wardrobe the hangers are bare Don’t know how you did it it must’ve been planned You even took your favourite chair CHORUS: So goodbye my lady goodbye You won’t find no tear in my eye So goodbye my lady goodbye Going out tonight to get high BRIDGE: Found myself at Charlie’s scene Drinking Old Fashioneds Sticky painted movie queen winked her eye at me That’s how it happened Diamond shoes satin dress [ ? ? ] black eyes flashing flashing flashing flashing INSTRUMENTAL: (4x) Woke up in the morning heard my mockingbird sing And he was singing for me The lady I met last night’s here by my side She’s good company CHORUS: Well hello sweet lady hello Good morning with a smile Well hello sweet lady hello This lady’s gonna make it alright OUTRO: (## fade to end ##) This lady’s gonna make it alright This lady’s gonna make it alright Lady lady This lady’s gonna make it alright Lady lady This lady’s gonna make it alright Lady lady This lady’s gonna make it alright Lady lady
