C               C7 F
Look up in the sky, up towards the 
north
C                         D7     
There are three new stars, 
          G
brightly shining forth
       C                 C7       
They're shining oh so bright, from
         F
 heaven above
               C              G7  
Gee we're gonna miss you, 
             C
everybody sends their love

[Verse 1]
C                              F
Ritchie, you were just starting to 
realize your dreams
C                       D7       
Everyone calls me a kid, but you 
                  G7
were only seventeen
C                               F
Now almighty God has called you, oh 
so far away
C                                 
Maybe it's to save some boy or 
  D7                          G7
girl, who might have gone astray
C                                 
And with your star shining through
C7                         F
 the dark and lonely night

                 C                 
To light the path and show the way,
G7                    C
 the way that's right
F              C              G7
Gee we're gonna miss you, 
               C

[Verse 2]
C           C7            F
Buddy, I can still see you with that
 shy grin on your face
C                                 
Seems like your hair was always a 
                 D7    G7
little messed up, kinda out of place
C                                 
Now not many people actually knew 
    F
you, or understood how you felt
C                                 
But just a song from, just a song 
              D7               
from you could make the coldest 
           G7
heart melt
C                                
Well, you're singing for God now,
C7                       F
 in his chorus in the sky
                 C               
Buddy Holly, I'll always remember 
    G7                C
you, with tears in my eyes
F              C              G7
Gee we're gonna miss you, 
               C
everybody sends their love

[Verse 3]
C                C7   F
I see a stout man, the Big Bopper's 
your name
C                        D7      
God called you to heaven, maybe 
                  G7
for new fortune and fame
C                               
Keep wearing that big Stetson 
C7  F
hat, and ramble up to the mic
   C                            
And don't forget those wonderful 
       D7               G7      C
words, "you know what I like"
