[00:00.999]A long long time ago
[00:02.999]I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
[00:11.999]And I knew if I had my chance
[00:14.999]That I could make those people dance
[00:18.999]And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
[00:24.999]But February made me shiver
[00:28.999]With every paper I'd deliver
[00:32.999]Bad news on the doorstep
[00:35.999]I couldn't take one more step
[00:39.999]I can't remember if I cried
[00:42.999]When I read about his widowed bride
[00:47.999]But something touched me deep inside
[00:52.999]The day the music died
[01:02.999]So Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[01:06.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[01:08.999]But the levee was dry
[01:11.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[01:16.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[01:22.999]This'll be the day that I die
[01:28.999]Did you write the Book of Love
[01:30.999]And do you have faith in God above
[01:34.999]If the Bible tells you so
[01:39.999]Do you believe in rock 'n roll
[01:42.999]Can music save your mortal soul
[01:46.999]And can you teach me how to dance real slow
[01:52.999]Well, I know that you're in love with him
[01:56.999]'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
[02:00.999]You both kicked off your shoes
[02:02.999]Man, I dig those rhythm and blues
[02:07.999]I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
[02:10.999]With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
[02:13.999]But I knew I was out of luck
[02:16.999]The day the music died
[02:23.999]I started singin'
[02:24.999]Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[02:27.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[02:29.999]But the levee was dry
[02:31.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[02:34.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[02:38.999]This'll be the day that I die
[02:42.999]Now for ten years we've been on our own
[02:46.999]And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
[02:50.999]But that's not how it used to be
[02:55.999]When the jester sang for the King and Queen
[02:58.999]In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
[03:02.999]And a voice that came from you and me
[03:09.999]Oh, and while the King was looking down
[03:13.999]The jester stole his thorny crown
[03:16.999]The courtroom was adjourned
[03:19.999]No verdict was returned
[03:23.999]And while Lennon read a book of Marx
[03:27.699]The quartet practiced in the park
[03:30.999]And we sang dirges in the dark
[03:33.999]The day the music died
[03:39.999]We were singing
[03:40.999]Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[03:43.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[03:46.999]But the levee was dry
[03:48.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[03:51.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[03:55.999]This'll be the day that I die
[04:00.999]Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
[04:03.999]The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
[04:08.999]Eight miles high and falling fast
[04:13.999]It landed foul out on the grass
[04:16.999]The players tried for a forward pass
[04:19.999]With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
[04:25.999]Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
[04:29.999]While the Sergeants played a marching tune
[04:33.999]We all got up to dance
[04:36.999]Oh, but we never got the chance
[04:39.999]'Cause the players tried to take the field
[04:43.999]The marching band refused to yield
[04:47.999]Do you recall what was revealed
[04:50.999]The day the music died
[04:56.999]We started singing
[04:57.999]Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[05:00.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[05:02.999]But the levee was dry
[05:04.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[05:07.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[05:12.999]This'll be the day that I die
[05:16.999]Oh, and there we were all in one place
[05:20.999]A generation Lost in Space
[05:23.999]With no time left to start again
[05:28.999]So come on, Jack be nimble, Jack be quick
[05:33.999]Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
[05:35.999]'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
[05:42.999]Oh, and as I watched him on the stage
[05:46.999]My hands were clenched in fists of rage
[05:50.999]No angel born in hell
[05:53.999]Could break that Satan's spell
[05:55.999]And as the flames climbed high into the night
[06:01.999]To light the sacrifical rite
[06:04.999]I saw Satan laughing with delight
[06:07.999]The day the music died
[06:14.999]He was singing
[06:15.999]Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[06:18.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[06:20.999]But the levee was dry
[06:22.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[06:25.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[06:29.999]This'll be the day that I die
[06:35.999]I met a girl who sang the blues
[06:39.999]And I asked her for some happy news
[06:43.999]But she just smiled and turned away
[06:48.999]I went down to the sacred store
[06:50.999]Where I'd heard the music years before
[06:54.999]But the man there said the music wouldn't play
[07:02.999]And in the streets the children screamed
[07:06.999]The lovers cried, and the poets dreamed
[07:09.999]But not a word was spoken
[07:14.999]The church bells all were broken
[07:18.999]And the three men I admire most
[07:22.999]The Father, Son and the Holy Ghost
[07:26.999]They caught the last train for the coast
[07:30.999]The day the music died
[07:38.999]And they were singing
[07:40.999]Bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[07:45.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[07:48.999]But the levee was dry
[07:51.999]And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[07:55.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[08:02.999]This'll be the day that I die
[08:07.999]They were singing bye-bye, Miss American Pie
[08:14.999]Drove my chevy to the levee
[08:16.999]But the levee was dry
[08:19.999]Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
[08:23.999]Singin' this'll be the day that I die
