  A
Finders keepers losers weep
C#m
Down on Forty-Second Street
F#m
Bare-foot children cryin', my-oh-my
   A
I watched you on the avenue
      C#m
While other men were having you
    F#m
I think that you should let your caged bird fly

Chorus:
                        A D
And kiss your past goodbye
                    G F
Kiss your past goodbye
                    A D
Kiss your past goodbye
                    G  F#m
Kiss your past goodbye yeah yeah yeah

I been so lost I must confess
I had my share of loneliness
But yeah, it's hard to keep a good man down
The loves you lost were all in vain
The past lives on inside your brain
I don't think you need those memories
Hangin' around, yeah

Chorus:
Goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
You gotta let it fly
Kiss your past goodbye, yeah
Yeah yeah

    F#
And if that bird don't fly away
         G
There's just one thing I got to say
      A
It's later than a deuce a ticks
      C#m
Your broken heart, it needs a fix
        F#m
You're feedin' off a high that would not last
     A
And people they don't seem to care
     C#m
And sorry just don't cut it, yeah
    F#m
It seems to me you're gettin' nowhere fast
So kiss your past

Chorus:
Or kiss your ass goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye
There's no more tears to cry, yeah
So kiss your past goodbye
Kiss your past goodbye

Or kiss your ass goodbye
Yeah
Yeah
Yeah!
