C G D (x2)
[Verse 1]
C G D G C G D
There's a handwritten note pressed in the door of her screened in porch
C G D G C G D
And I am sailing away recalling that day miles from shore
C G D G C G D
She was still wearing white and robins egg blue, her grandmothers dress
C G D G C G D
When I left early this year, how I wound up here is anyone's guess
Em C D G C D
When the new sites grow old and I start to feel cold I'll sail home again
[Chorus 1]
G D
Goodbye Brielle
Am C
Only whispers can tell
G D
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
Am C D
I'll see you around our dear ocean town
G D
The frozen days we set ablaze
Am C
Sent me drifting away
G
Like a butterfly you floated by
D
And now you're alone
Am C D
I wish I knew when I'll be back again
Am G C
So until then I wish you well
D
My dear Brielle
[Instrumental]

C G D (x2)
[Verse 2]
C G D G C G D
Strolling over the sand and cobblestone paths that wind through the trees
C G D G C G
And breathing the sweet forest air makes a bluebird aware that she could
D
Be free
Em C D G C D
When the new sites grow old and I start to feel cold, I'll sail home again
[Chorus 2]
G D
Goodbye Brielle
Am C
Only whispers can tell
G D
Of the sweet dreams that we knew so well
Am C D
I'll see you around our dear ocean town
G D
The frozen days we set ablaze
Am C
Sent me drifting away
G
Like a butterfly you floated by
D
And now you're alone
Am C D
I wish I knew when I'll be back again
Am G C
So until then I wish you well
Am G C
So until then I wish you well
Am G C
I love you my darling farewell
D
My dear Brielle
