This song was rejected by over 30 acts before the Everly Brothers picked
it up and to it to #2 for 4 weeks.
This is off Simon and Garfunkel's "Bridge Over Troubled Water", because
I didn't have an Everly Brothers recording. To play with the record,
capo on the second fret.

Bye Bye Love
By Felice and Boudleaux Bryant
INTRO:
[CHORUS]
Bye bye, love.
Bye bye, happiness.
Hello, loneliness.
I think I'm gonna cry.
Bye bye, love.
Bye bye, sweet caress.
Hello, emptiness.
I feel like I could die.
Bye bye, my love, goodbye.
[VERSE 1]
There goes my baby
With someone new.
She sure looks happy;
I sure am blue.
She was my baby
'till he stepped in.
Goodbye, to romance
That might have been.
(CHORUS)
[VERSE 2]
I'm through with romance.
I'm through with love.
I'm through with counting
The stars above,
And here's the reason
That I'm so free:
My lovin' baby
Is through with me.
(CHORUS)
(repeat and fade) Goodbye, my love goodbye.
