[00:00.00] 作曲 : McLean
[00:01.220] A long long time ago
[00:04.340] I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
[00:12.760] And I knew if I had my chance
[00:16.260] That I could make those people dance
[00:18.880] And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
[00:26.120] But February made me shiver
[00:29.610] With every paper I'd deliver
[00:33.170] Bad news on the doorstep
[00:36.600] I couldn't take one more step
[00:41.340] I can't remember if I cried
[00:44.210] When I read about his widowed bride
[00:49.210] But something touched me deep inside
[00:53.700] The day the music died
[01:01.370]
[01:03.620] So Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[01:07.600] Drove my chevy to the levee
[01:10.780] But the levee was dry
[01:13.470] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[01:17.650] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[01:23.200] This'll be the day that I die
[01:30.190] Did you write the Book of Love
[01:32.380] And do you have faith in God above
[01:37.300] If the Bible tells you so
[01:39.180] Do you believe in rock 'n roll
[01:44.040] Can music save your mortal soul
[01:47.410] And can you teach me how to dance real slow
[01:53.780] Well' I know that you're in love with him
[01:58.060] 'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
[02:01.550] You both kicked off your shoes
[02:04.490] Man' I dig those rhythm and blues
[02:08.480] I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
[02:11.790] With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
[02:15.220] But I knew I was out of luck
[02:18.650] The day the music died
[02:24.890] I started singin'
[02:26.080] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[02:28.950] Drove my chevy to the levee
[02:30.940] But the levee was dry
[02:32.570] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[02:35.810] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[02:39.930] This'll be the day that I die
[02:44.170]
[02:44.740] Now for ten years we've been on our own
[02:48.230] And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
[02:52.100] But that's not how it used to be
[02:55.160] When the jester sang for the King and Queen
[03:00.270] In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
[03:04.020] And a voice that came from you and me
[03:09.380]
[03:10.690] Oh' and while the King was looking down
[03:14.690] The jester stole his thorny crown
[03:17.930] The courtroom was adjourned
[03:21.490] No verdict was returned
[03:24.300] And while Lennon read a book of Marx
[03:28.170] The quartet practiced in the park
[03:31.470] And we sang dirges in the dark
[03:35.090] The day the music died
[03:40.520]
[03:41.080] We were singing
[03:42.140] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[03:45.260] Drove my chevy to the levee
[03:47.200] But the levee was dry
[03:48.760] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[03:52.190] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[03:56.310] This'll be the day that I die
[03:59.740]
[04:01.680] Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
[04:04.480] The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
[04:07.850] Eight miles high and falling fast
[04:14.160] It landed foul out on the grass
[04:16.530] The players tried for a forward pass
[04:19.960] With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
[04:23.450] Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
[04:30.880] While the Sergeants played a marching tune
[04:34.000] We all got up to dance
[04:37.120] Oh' but we never got the chance
[04:40.990] 'Cause the players tried to take the field
[04:44.230] The marching band refused to yield
[04:47.850] Do you recall what was revealed
[04:51.350] The day the music died
[04:54.960] We started singing
[04:58.580] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[05:01.520] Drove my chevy to the levee
[05:03.510] But the levee was dry
[05:05.320] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[05:08.690] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[05:12.750] This'll be the day that I die
[05:15.740]
[05:17.920] Oh' and there we were all in one place
[05:21.640] A generation Lost in Space
[05:25.510] With no time left to start again
[05:28.750] So come on' Jack be nimble' Jack be quick
[05:34.180] Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
[05:37.610] 'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
[05:44.350] Oh' and as I watched him on the stage
[05:47.720] My hands were clenched in fists of rage
[05:51.150] No angel born in hell
[05:54.830] Could break that Satan's spell
[05:57.580] And as the flames climbed high into the night
[06:01.510] To light the sacrifical rite
[06:04.940] I saw Satan laughing with delight
[06:08.370] The day the music died
[06:13.870]
[06:14.610] He was singing
[06:15.550] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[06:18.670] Drove my chevy to the levee
[06:20.040] But the levee was dry
[06:22.540] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[06:25.780] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[06:29.840] This'll be the day that I die
[06:34.080]
[06:36.200] I met a girl who sang the blues
[06:39.320] And I asked her for some happy news
[06:43.510] But she just smiled and turned away
[06:48.060] I went down to the sacred store
[06:51.180] Where I'd heard the music years before
[06:55.170] But the man there said the music wouldn't play
[07:01.980]
[07:03.160] And in the streets the children screamed
[07:07.400] The lovers cried' and the poets dreamed
[07:11.020] But not a word was spoken
[07:14.390] The church bells all were broken
[07:18.760] And the three men I admire most
[07:22.760] The Father' Son and the Holy Ghost
[07:26.690] They caught the last train for the coast
[07:30.620] The day the music died
[07:37.290] And they were singing
[07:40.350] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie

[07:18.760] And the three men I admire most
[07:22.760] The Father' Son and the Holy Ghost
[07:26.690] They caught the last train for the coast
[07:30.620] The day the music died
[07:37.290] And they were singing
[07:40.350] Byebye' Miss American Pie
[07:45.090] Drove my chevy to the levee
[07:48.030] But the levee was dry
[07:50.590] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[07:56.010] Singin' this' ll be the day that I die
[08:01.010] This' ll be the day that I die
[08:06.620] They were singing byebye' Miss American Pie
[08:13.110] Drove my chevy to the levee
[08:15.610] But the levee was dry
[08:17.040] Them good old boys were drinking whiskey and rye
[08:19.980] Singin' this' ll be the day that I die
