Got the news on Friday mornin′
But a tear I couldn't find
You showed me how I′m supposed to liveAnd now you showed me how to die
I was lost 'til Sunday morning
I woke up to face my fear
While writing you this goodbye song
I found a tear
I'm gonna miss that smile
I′m gonna miss you, my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I′d do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven
'Cause that′s right where you want to be
I'm not cryin′ 'cause I feel so sorry for you
I′m cryin' for me
I got up and dialed your number
And your voice came on the line with that old familiar message
I'd heard a thousand times, it just said
"Sorry that I missed you, leave a message and God bless"
I know you′d think I′m crazy, but I had to hear your voice again
I'm gonna miss that smile
I′m gonna miss you, my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I'd do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven
′Cause that's right where you want to be
I′m not cryin' 'cause I feel so sorry for you
I′m cryin′ for me
So play your upside down, left handed, backwards bass guitar
And I'll see you on the other side, superstar
I′m gonna miss that smile
I'm gonna miss you, my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I′d do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven
'Cause that′s right where you want to be
I'm not cryin' ′cause I feel so sorry for you
I′m cryin' for me
I′m still cryin'
I′m cryin for me
I'm still cryin′
