Verse 2

Clicks, clacks, riding the backs of giraffes for laughs

Is all right for a while

The ego sings of castles and kings and things

That go with a life of style

Wanting to feel, to know what is real

Living is a lie

The porpoise is waiting, goodbye, goodbye

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye

Coda

GGoodbye, goodbye, goodbDye

G Bm [45 ends cold]

Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye
