Аккорды к песне ​Don McLean — American Pie

G    D  Em7 
А long, long time ago,   
 Am          C        Em 
I can still remember how that music  
         D 
Used to make me smile  
 G     D   Em7 
And I know if I had my chance,  
  Am            C 
That I could make those people dance  
  Em         C   D 
And maybe they'd be happy for a while  
            
 Em       Am 
But February made me shiver,  
   Em        Am 
With every paper I'd deliver  
C    G     Am 
Bad news on the doorstep,  
   C             D 
I couldn't take one more step  
  G        D  Em 
I can't remember if I cried  
   Am7           D 
When I read about his widowed bride  
G    D       Em 
Something touched me deep inside  
C     D7   G  C G 
The day the music died  
  
Chorus: 
 G    C     G     D 
So bye, bye Miss American Pie  
     G      C         G     D 
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry  
     G    C           G      D 
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye  
    Em                   A7 
Singin' this will be the day that I die,  
 Em          D7 
This will be the day that I die  
  
G          Am 
Did you write the book of love  
    C         Am 
And Do you have faith in god above, 
  Em        D 
If the bible tells you so?  
G    D       Em 
Do you believe in rock and roll 
 Am7         C 
Can music save your mortal soul  
     Em         A7 D 
And can you teach me how to dance real slow?  
  
   Em             D 
Well I know that you're in love with him   
     Em        D 
'Cuz I saw you dancin' in the gym  
 C        G     A7 
You both kicked off your shoes,  
  C               D7 
Man I dig those rhythm and blues  
     G     D    Em 
I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck  
     Am       C 
With a pink carnation and a pickup truck  
 G      D    Em         C 
But I knew I was out of luck the day  
 D7    G C G 
The music died, I started singin'  
  
Chorus: 
 G    C     G     D 
So bye, bye Miss American Pie  
     G      C         G     D 
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry  
     G    C           G      D 
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye  
    Em                   A7 
Singin' this will be the day that I die,  
 Em     D7 
This will be the day that I die  
  
    G            Am 
Now for ten years we've been on our own,  
  C           Am 
and moss grows fat on a rolling stone  
Em        D 
But that's not how it used to be  
     G     D       Em 
When the jester sang for the king and queen   
    Am7            C 
in a coat he borrowed from James Dean  
    Em      A7     D 
In a voice that came from you and me  
  Em              D 
And while the king was looking down,  
  Em       D 
The jester stole his thorny crown  
  C      G      A7  C        D7 
The courtroom was adjourned, no verdict was returned  
     G     D   Em 
And while Lenin read a book on Marx,  
  Am          C 
The quartet practiced in the park  
 G     D    Em           C 
And we sang dirges in the dark the day  
   D7   G C G 
The music died, we were singin'  
  
Chorus: 
 G    C     G     D 
So bye, bye Miss American Pie  
     G      C         G     D 
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry  
     G    C           G      D 
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye  
    Em                   A7 
Singin' this will be the day that I die,  
 Em     D7 
This will be the day that I die  
  
G            Am 
Helter skelter in a summer swelter  
C             Am 
The birds flew off with a fallout shelter,  
 Em        D 
Eight miles high and fallin' fast  
    G   D    Em 
It landed foul on the grass  
  Am7              C 
The players tried for a forward pass,  
Em      A7 D 
With the jester on the sidelines in a cast  
    Em           D 
Now at halftime there was sweet perfume,  
   Em     D 
While sergeants played a marching Tune  
C       G     A7     C           D7 
We all got up to dance, but we never got the chance  
      G    D      Em 
'Cuz the players tried to take the field,  
  Am    C 
The marching band refused to yield  
 G    D      Em          C 
Do you recall what was the feel the day 
  D7   G C G 
The music died, we started singin'  
  
Chorus: 
 G    C     G     D 
So bye, bye Miss American Pie  
     G      C         G     D 
Drove my Chevy to the levy but the levy was dry  
     G    C           G      D 
And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye  
    Em                   A7 
Singin' this will be the day that I die,  
 Em         D7 
This will be the day that I die  
  
  G         Am 
And there we were all in one place,  
  C     Am         Em              D 
А generation lost in space, with no time left to start again  
     G     D    Em 
So come on Jack be nimble, Jack be quick,  
 Am7       C 
Jack Flash sat on a candle   
    Em                     A7 D 
Stick, 'cuz fire is the devil's only friend  
  Em           D 
And as I watched him on the stage,  
   Em       D 
My hands were clenched in fists of rage  
 C    G     A7       C           D7 
No angel born in Hell could bread that Satan's spell  
      G         D     Em 
And as the flames climbed high into the night  
 Am C 
To light the sacrificial rite  
    G    D      Em          C 
I saw Satan laughing with delight the day  
 D7    G C G 
The music died, he was singin'  
  
Chorus:  
  G    D       Em 
I met a girl who sang the blues  
   Am           C 
And I asked her for some happy news,  
   Em         D 
But she just smiled and turned away  
  G      D   Em 
I went down to the sacred store  
     Am          C 
Where I'd heard the music years before,  
     Em    C 
But the man there said the music  
    D 
Wouldn't play  
  
 Em              Am 
But in the streets the children screamed,  
  Em      Am 
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed  
 C    G      Am       C             D 
But not a word was spoken, the church bells all were broken                                    
     G     D  Em 
And the three men I admire most,  
  Am7      C D7 
The Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost  
G        D        Em 
They caught the last train for the coast  
  Am7       D7   G 
The day the music died,  
D7 
And they were singin'  
  
Chorus: 
  G    D       Em 
I met a girl who sang the blues  
   Am           C 
And I asked her for some happy news,  
   Em         D 
But she just smiled and turned away  
  G      D   Em 
I went down to the sacred store  
     Am          C 
Where I'd heard the music years before,  
     Em    C 
But the man there said the music  
    D 
Wouldn't play
