Key: A Minor BPM: ♩ = 94 Time: 4/4
|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |

|Am     |Am     |C      |C          |
|F      |F      |Em     |Em    Bb   |

|Am              |Am                  |C                 |C              |
   I just can't believe that it's over,  we were chilling out on the sofa
       |F                        |F                     |
Digging how the guitar goes, in a song that no one knows
       |Em                                 |Em           Bb   |
Did you lick that line yourself, or did the voodoo magic help?
    |Am                                    |Am                         |
Does everyone have a different take? Do you seem real, but I seem fake?
    |Em                     |Em             |
Does everyone get hypnotized   by your fire?

|C               |Em                   |Am                          |F                       |
   So long, Jimmy,  so long, though you only stayed a moment, we all know that you're the one
       |C               |Em             |
Singing,  so long, Jimmy,  so long, sure
     |Am                         |D7                      |
We're glad for the experience, we miss you now you've gone
          |F                                   |G                      |
We're just swimming in your soul, ’cause we all wish we wrote this song

         |Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
Life goes on

|Am             |Am                   |C                |C                |
   I'm just so relieved that it's over,  we were hanging out going nowhere
       |F                        |F                     |
Digging how the guitar goes, in a song that no one knows
       |Em                                   |Em           Bb   |
Did you burn that bridge yourself, or did the voodoo magic help?
    |Am                                     |Am                           |
Does everyone have a different take? Are you just cool and I'm just baked?
    |Em                     |Em             |
Does everyone get mesmerized   by your fire?

|C               |Em                   |Am                          |F                       |
   So long, Jimmy,  so long, though you only stayed a moment, we all know that you're the one
       |C               |Em             |
Singing,  so long, Jimmy,  so long, sure
     |Am                         |D7                      |
We're glad for the experience, we miss you now you've gone
          |F                                   |G                      |
We're just swimming in your soul, ’cause we all wish we wrote this song

         |Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
Life goes on

|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |

|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |

|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
|Am     |Am     |Am     |Am     |
