A C#m D B7 2

x A
well , i came by your house the other day ,
C#m
your mother said you went away
D
she said there was nothing that i could have done ,
B7
there was nothing nobody could say
A
me and you we’ve known each other ,
C#m
ever since we were sixteen
D
i wished i would have known , i wished i could’ve called you ,
B7 A C#m D B7
just to say goodbye , bobby jean

A
now you hung with me when all the others ,
C#m
turned away , turned up their nose
D
we liked the same bands , we liked the same music ,
B7
we liked the same clothes
A
we told each other that we were the wildest ,
C#m
the wildest things we’d ever seen
D
now i wished you would have told me , i wished i could have talked to you ,
B7 A C#m D B7
just to say goodbye , bobby jean

D
now we went walking in the rain ,
F#m
talking about the pain that from the world we hid
D A E
now there aint nobody , no where no how , gonna ever understand me the way you did

A
maybe you’ll be out there on that road somewhere ,
C#m
in some bus or train traveling along
D
in some motel room you’ll hear a radio playing ,
B7
and you’ll hear me sing this song

A
well , if you do you’ll know i’m thinking of you ,
C#m
and all the miles in between
D
and i’m just calling one last time ,
B7
not to change your mind ,
D E A
but just to say i miss you baby , good luck , goodbye bobby jean
