[00:00.00]	作曲 : McLean
[00:01.0]	A long long time ago
[00:03.0]	I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
[00:12.0]	And I knew if I had my chance
[00:15.0]	That I could make those people dance
[00:19.0]	And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
[00:25.0]	But February made me shiver
[00:29.0]	With every paper I'd deliver
[00:33.0]	Bad news on the doorstep
[00:36.0]	I couldn't take one more step
[00:40.0]	I can't remember if I cried
[00:43.0]	When I read about his widowed bride
[00:48.0]	But something touched me deep inside
[00:53.0]	The day the music died
[01:03.0]	So Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[01:07.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
[01:09.0]	But the levee was dry
[01:12.0]	And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[01:17.0]	Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[01:23.0]	This'll be the day that I die
[01:29.0]	Did you write the Book of Love
[01:31.0]	And do you have faith in God above
[01:35.0]	If the Bible tells you so
[01:40.0]	Do you believe in rock 'n roll
[01:43.0]	Can music save your mortal soul
[01:47.0]	And can you teach me how to dance real slow
[01:53.0]	Well' I know that you're in love with him
[01:57.0]	'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
[02:01.0]	You both kicked off your shoes
[02:03.0]	Man' I dig those rhythm and blues
[02:08.0]	I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
[02:11.0]	With a pink carnation and a pickup truck
[02:14.0]	But I knew I was out of luck
[02:17.0]	The day the music died
[02:24.0]	I started singin'
[02:25.0]	Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[02:28.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
[02:30.0]	But the levee was dry
[02:32.0]	And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[02:35.0]	Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[02:39.0]	This'll be the day that I die
[02:43.0]	Now for ten years we've been on our own
[02:47.0]	And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
[02:51.0]	But that's not how it used to be
[02:56.0]	When the jester sang for the King and Queen
[02:59.0]	In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
[03:03.0]	And a voice that came from you and me
[03:10.0]	Oh' and while the King was looking down
[03:14.0]	The jester stole his thorny crown
[03:17.0]	The courtroom was adjourned
[03:20.0]	No verdict was returned
[03:24.0]	And while Lennon read a book of Marx
[03:28.0]	The quartet practiced in the park
[03:31.0]	And we sang dirges in the dark
[03:34.0]	The day the music died
[03:40.0]	We were singing
[03:41.0]	Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[03:44.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
[03:47.0]	But the levee was dry
[03:49.0]	And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[03:52.0]	Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[03:56.0]	This'll be the day that I die
[04:01.0]	Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
[04:04.0]	The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
[04:09.0]	Eight miles high and falling fast
[04:14.0]	It landed foul out on the grass
[04:17.0]	The players tried for a forward pass
[04:20.0]	With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
[04:26.0]	Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
[04:30.0]	While the Sergeants played a marching tune
[04:34.0]	We all got up to dance
[04:37.0]	Oh' but we never got the chance
[04:40.0]	'Cause the players tried to take the field
[04:44.0]	The marching band refused to yield
[04:48.0]	Do you recall what was revealed
[04:51.0]	The day the music died
[04:57.0]	We started singing
[04:58.0]	Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[05:01.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
[05:03.0]	But the levee was dry
[05:05.0]	And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[05:08.0]	Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[05:13.0]	This'll be the day that I die
[05:17.0]	Oh' and there we were all in one place
[05:21.0]	A generation Lost in Space
[05:24.0]	With no time left to start again
[05:29.0]	So come on' Jack be nimble' Jack be quick
[05:34.0]	Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
[05:36.0]	'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
[05:43.0]	Oh' and as I watched him on the stage
[05:47.0]	My hands were clenched in fists of rage
[05:51.0]	No angel born in hell
[05:54.0]	Could break that Satan's spell
[05:56.0]	And as the flames climbed high into the night
[06:02.0]	To light the sacrifical rite
[06:05.0]	I saw Satan laughing with delight
[06:08.0]	The day the music died
[06:15.0]	He was singing
[06:16.0]	Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[06:19.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
[06:21.0]	But the levee was dry
[06:23.0]	And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[06:26.0]	Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[06:30.0]	This'll be the day that I die
[06:36.0]	I met a girl who sang the blues
[06:40.0]	And I asked her for some happy news
[06:44.0]	But she just smiled and turned away
[06:49.0]	I went down to the sacred store
[06:51.0]	Where I'd heard the music years before
[06:55.0]	But the man there said the music wouldn't play
[07:03.0]	And in the streets the children screamed
[07:07.0]	The lovers cried' and the poets dreamed
[07:10.0]	But not a word was spoken
[07:15.0]	The church bells all were broken
[07:19.0]	And the three men I admire most
[07:23.0]	The Father' Son and the Holy Ghost
[07:27.0]	They caught the last train for the coast
[07:31.0]	The day the music died
[07:39.0]	And they were singing
[07:41.0]	Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[07:46.0]	Drove my chevy to the levee
