  Jimmy climbs on board that old yellow bus

  it sure looks big in his little eyes

  his momma waves as her tears kick up the dust

 Its never easy to say goodbye

Same chords

Julie Rae in her pearl white wedding gown

Has found her wings and its time to fly

It’s all her dad can do to keep from breaking down

It’s never easy to say goodbye

Chorus

G It ain’t eas Em y, to C ever say good D bye

It ain’t G eas Em y lettin’ C go of the ones you D love

But be G lieve Em me we’ll meet C again bye and Am bye

 If not here some where up ab ove

G I’ve had Em friends that I C lost along the D way

G They’ve been Em called on C down the D line

G Though their time was Em short I still C think about ‘em every G day

G It ain’t Em easy to C say good- G -bye

Repeat Chorus

Bridge

G The time has Em come to C go our separate D ways

G And it’s al- Em -right if you C want to D cry

G Though I Em know we’ll C meet again some- G -day

G It’s never Em easy to C say good- G -bye

Repeat Chorus

 Yeah if not here, Some where up a bove
