G                          Em
A long, long time ago
C                     D                G
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
G                               Em
And I knew if I had my chance
C                         D                    G
That I could make those people dance
         C                D                G
And maybe they'd be happy for a while
G                               Em
But February made me shiver
C                       D                  G
With every paper I'd deliver
G                        Em
Bad news on the doorstep
C                   D               G
I couldn't take one more step
G                      Em
I can't remember if I cried
C                         D                G
When I read about his widowed bride
         C                   D              G
But something touched me deep inside
              C         D         G
The day the music died

G         C              G
So bye, bye Miss American Pie
         F                     C
Drove my Chevy to
