Verse 1 

G               Riff 1 
Fare thee well my brother 
                         A 
please don't stand in my way 
G                       D 
I'm going down to that dirty town 
    A 
no matter what you say 
    G              Riff 1 
You fooled me and you ruled me 
                        A 
and you played in every part 
        G           D 
I gotta go, it's no use me stayin' home 

G                Riff 1 
Goodbye my sister 
               A 
please don't let me see you cry 
 G                D  
Gonna be a star some day 
                   A 
no matter what they say 
    G                Riff 1 
And when you hear the crowds 
                  A 
all callin' and shouting out my name 
      G               D 
until then, my little friend, I'll be unsatisfied 

 G            Riff 1 
So long sweet Melinda 
            A 
don't forget that you're my girl 
       G 
Gonna dress you fine 
            D            
and if you give me time 
          A 
make you proud like I said I would 
             G                 Riff 1 
And if the Champs Elysee's no fallacy 
               A 
If I find the world looks like it should 
       G                            D 
Candy cars, movie stars, street bars 

then I could stay a while 
             
        G    D 
Well I love you 
          A 
Shall I write or phone from Paris or Rome 
          G            D 
and I'll miss you all 
       A 
even tho' you're tryin' to hold me back
