[Verse 1]
          Fmaj7     C              G
Children playing,      night is falling,
          Fmaj7    C          G
Stars are winking...   in the sky,
          Fmaj7    C           G
Supper's cooking,     mama's calling,
                Fmaj7    C                  G
But they're not ready...     to say good - bye!


[Verse 2]
                    Fmaj7     C               G
While you've been sleeping,       I've been walking,
           Fmaj7            C                 G
I've been restless, but I swear I don't know why,
        Fmaj7    C                G
I'm not crying,      it's just raining,
            Fmaj7    C                  G
And I'm not ready...     to say good - bye!

[Verse 3]
        Fmaj7     C            G
We are dreamers,      slowly waking,
        Fmaj7               C               G
We are shooting stars a - cross a midnight sky,
        Fmaj7     C           G
We are strangers...  in the making,
           Fmaj7    C                 G
We're not ready...     to say good - bye!

I'm no angel,     I'm no demon,
        Fmaj7           C                G  G4  G  G4  G  G4  G  G4
I'm no Christian, but I ain't afraid to die,
        Fmaj7     C              G
I'm not leaving,      I'm just going,
                  Fmaj7     C                 G
'Cause you're not ready...     to say good - bye!

[Verse 5]
           Fmaj7     C          G
Ghosts and angels,      on my street now,
         Fmaj7                C              G
Yes, and there, but for the grace of God, go I,
             Fmaj7     C               G
So draw the curtain,       light the lamp now,
               Fmaj7    C                 G
'Cause I'm not ready...    to say good - bye,
           Fmaj7     C                 G             Fmaj7
You're not ready...     to say good - bye, we're not ready!
