Goodbye Comes Hard For Me - Merle Haggard

I just remembered somethin'

That I forgot to do The bedroom door needs paintin'

And the walls are fadin’too

Angie’s bike needs fixin'

It all takes time, you see

And I know I’m not foolin’you

Goodbye comes hard for me.

So I’ll just check for things once more

And look in every room

I must have dropped my comb somewhere

And a man must stay well groomed

It seems I have the right to stay

But I know you don’t agree

When it’s goodbye to all I love

Goodbye comes hard for me Goodbye comes hard for me And I’d hoped you’d grab my sleeve

I thought that you might change your mind

And ask me not to leave

My face is wet, I cried I guess

I love you, now your free

When it’s goodbye to all I love

Goodbye comes hard for me --- Instrumental ---

My face is wet, I cried I guess

I love you, now your free

When it’s goodbye to all I love

Goodbye comes hard for me…
