*** intro: 

E | b a 

C#m | b e 

A | e b | d2 | 

*** verse 1: 

A2 e 

Remember this, given us 

C#m b a2 

By someone's set of parents 

E b 

I don't recall, I admit 

D2 a2 

I don't know just who's to blame 

E f#m 

For relics of our history... 

A2 e 

To tell the truth, it wasn't bad 

C#m b a2 

We had to have a reason 

E b 

And lack of love wasn't it 

D2 a2 

We both know we had a past 

E f#m 

But present must contain 

A e b 

A future where both of us can fit 

*** chorus: 

E b a 

So long and sorry, darling 

C#m b e 

I was counting to forever 

A e b 

And never even got to ten 

E b a 

So long and sorry, darling 

C#m b e 

When we found a rip in heaven 

A e b d2 

We should have just ascended then 

*** verse 2: 

It's funny how you just assume a2 | e 

You're going to work it out c#m | b | a2 

Or give it at least a try e | b | 

But optimistic feelings can't be d2 | a 

Passed from hand to hand e | f#m 

You handle them they tend to die a | e | b 

*** chorus: 

So long and sorry, darling e | b a 

I was counting to forever c#m | b e 

And never even got to ten a | e b 

So long and sorry, darling e | b a 

When we found a rip in heaven c#m | b e 

We should have just ascended then a | e b 

*** bridge: 

D2 e 

Well, better than if I just go away 

G#m c#m b a a2 

Preserving the fiction of 

E 

Indifference now 

B 

Replacing love 

*** instrumental: 

E | b a 

C#m | b e 

A | e b 

*** chorus: 

So long and sorry, darling e | b a 

I was counting to forever c#m | b e 

And never even got to ten a | e b 

So long and sorry, darling e | b a 

When we found a rip in heaven c#m | b e 

We should have just ascended then a | e b 

*** coda: 

A e b 

We should have just ascended then 

A e b 

We should have just ascended then
