Intro: (langsam)
.  G     D        Em      |
A long, long time ago__
Am             C             |Em            D             | 2/4 D
I can still remember how that music used to make me smile.__
 | 4/4 G   D     Em              | Am                 C
And I knew if I had my chance that I could make those people dance
  | Em               C         | D      || 8 Takte Synth-Gedudel auf D - Tempo!||
and maybe they'd by happy for a while.

1. Strophe:
G                |Am,                |C                |Am        |
Did you write the book of love and do you have faith in God above?__
Em             |D           | D       |G   Em        |Em
   If the Bible tells you so__  Now do you believe in rock and roll?
.  |Am             |C              | Em              |A7           |D7       |D7
Can music save your mortal soul? and can you teach me how to dance_ real slow?
.     |Em                 |Am                    |Em             |Am
Well I know that you're in love with him 'cause I saw you dancing in the gym,
_   |C          G       | Am          |C                   |D7
You both kicked off your shoes,  Man I dig those rhythm and blues!
.       | G      D    | Em                  |Am                  |C
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck, with a pink carnation and a pick-up truck.
.    |G    D    |Em             |C       |D7   | G  C  |G          D7
But I knew I was out of luck the day, the music died.___ I started singing....

Refrain:
      |G    C        |G       D           |G            C            |
.   So bye-bye, Miss American Pie.Drove my Chevy to the levee but the
.    G         D        |G        C                | G          D           |
.   levee was dry, them good ole boys were drinkin' whiskey and Rye, singing
.   Em                       |A7     |Em                       || D7 4 Takte  Git-Riff ||
.   this'll be the day that I die,    This'll be the day that I die.__

2. Strophe:
.  G     D       Em
I met a girl who sang the blues so
.  Am                  C            Em                                D
I asked her for some happy news but she just smiled__    and turned away.
. G     D          Em                      Am              C
I went down to the sacred store.  Where I heard the music years before.__
.       Em                 C              D
But the man there said the music wouldn't play.__     And
Em                  Am                    Em                   D
in the streets the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed.
.    C     G        Am              C                          D
But not a word was spoken.__  The church__ bells_ all_ were_ broken.
.         G       D   Em               Am7                 C
And the three men I admire most:  the father, Son and the Holy Ghost__
.     G          D         Em                 C       D7     G   C  G               D7
They caught the last train for the coast the day, the music died.     And they were singing:
