Going Going Gone

G 
Daniel made a pass 
           D              C 
We started flirting after class 
         D                C 
Stealing hats and trading jackets 
        D 
Locking lips and braces, brackets 
      G 
After dinner, before dark 
                  D                C 
We'd meet at the same bench in the park 
       D              C 
Sweaty palms, averted eyes 
        D                          C 
Wasn't sure if he and I were going out 



      G 
Going out 
      D 
Going out, ooh 
 C            G 
Going, going, out 

 

G 
The sunset threw a tantrum 
          D               C 
It wasn't ready to go just yet 
       D                    C 
Mother Earth said, "Time for bed" 
   D 
It resisted and the sky went red 
    G 
The color filterеd out 
             D              C 
Like pulling teeth out of a cloud 
    D              C 
The bloody battle еnded 
        D                                       C 
No, the sun can't break the habit of going down 

 

      G 
Going down 
      D 
Going down, ooh 
C             G 
Going, going, down 



G 
Daniel in ten years 
         D               C 
Grabbing asses, spilling beers 
        D                    C 
Another ten and he'll have a daughter 
       D 
She'll grow up and he can't stop her 
            G 
Back on the bench, making plans 
              D              C 
Watching the day end hand in hand 
         D                 C 
I always had to be home by eight 
             D 
My dad would kill me if I was late 
                 C 
I'll be going now 



      G 
Going now 
      D 
Going now, ooh 
C             G 
Going, going, now 
           C 
Going, gone 
      G 
Going, gone 
           D 
Going, gone, ooh 
C             G 
Going, going, gone
