Subject: RE: Suggestions for a farewell song?
Well, from the country western arena this song might possibly work with a few word changes - it's been done by Willie Nelson and others.
THE PARTY'S OVER
CHORUS
[A] Turn out the lights, [E] the party's [A]over.
They say that all [E]good things must end.
[A] Call it a night, [D] the party's over
and tomorrow starts the [A] same old [E] thing [A] again.
[A] What a crazy, crazy party. Never seen so many people.
Laughing, dancing, look at you, you're having [E]fun.
Look at me, I'm almost crying. But, that don't keep her love from dying.
Misery calls for me. The party's [A] over.
(CHORUS)
[A] Once, I had a love undying. I didn't keep it I wasn't trying.
Life for me was just one party then [E]another.
I broke her heart so many times. Had to have my party wine.
Then one day she said, "Sweetheart the party's [A]over".
