Through the back window of our 
C   C
'59 wagon
  G                       G  
I watched my best friend Jamie 
           Dsus      D
slipping further away
A         D           C

 her
    G                  G           
And through my tears I asked again 
C     D        G
why we couldn't stay
C              C        Dsus    
Mama whispered softly, time will
       D
 ease your pain
C               C               
Life's about changing, nothing 
Dsus          D
ever stays the same

              G          G        
And she said, how can I help you 
  D        G
to say goodbye
     G        G             Dsus 
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay 
    D
to cry

I sat on our bed, he packed his 
suitcase
I held a picture of our wedding day
His hands were trembling, we both 
were crying
He kissed me gently, and then he 
quickly walked away
I called up Mama, she said, time 
will ease your pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever 
stays the same

And she said, how can I help you to 
say goodbye
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to 
cry
Gome let me hold you, and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye

solo:

Sitting with Mama, alone in her 
bedroom
She opened her eyes, and then 
squeezed my hand
She said, I have to go now, my time 
here is over
And with her final words she tried 
to help me understand
Mama whispered softly, time will 
ease your pain
Life's about changing, nothing ever 
stays the same

And she said, how can I help you to 
say goodbye
It's okay to hurt, and it's okay to 
cry
Gome let me hold you, and I will try
How can I help you to say goodbye
