My Friend (So Long)
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
I heard your record on the telephone
It was my cousin Joan
She picked it up in the tops 40 rack
And then..
I read your interview in Rolling Stone
You threw the boys a bone
And so I genuinely felt obliged to call
I know you never meant to hurt us, man
We're just a baby band
You found a quicker way
To scale the wall of fame
The situation's awfully dim
Should we up and go with him?
No way
(1,2,3,4)
Chorus:
We know exactly where you are and you're gone
(My friend)
Don't know exactly where you're coming from
You've gone away
(So long, my friend)
We know exactly where you are and you're gone
(My friend)
Don't know exactly where you're coming from
Have you gone astray
I saw your video on VH1
Looks like they spent a ton
How does it feel to be a flavor for a spell
And I remember when you used to say
"Jesus is the way"
I never thought I'd see your light begin to fade
The situation's awfully dim
Should we up and go with him?
No way
(1,2,3,4)
Chorus
Oh na na na na na na na na na
Bridge:
Don't think we don't miss you
We think about you every day
We still love you anyway
Cause love don't go away
There's still this burning question
I got to know "why?"
Oh, oh, oh, hey
Oh, oh, oh, oh, hey
Oh, oh, oh, hey
Oh, oh, oh, hey, hey hey
chorus
Na na na na na na na na
And you're gone
Na na na na na na na na
And so long
Oh, you've gone away
My friend
Na na na na na na na na
And you're gone
Na na na na na na na na
And so long
We'll see you some day
Wish you well
Na na na na na
My friend
