Verse 1 & Chorus 1
|
A
|
long,
|
long
|
time
|
ago
|
I
|
can
|
still
|
remember
|
how
|
that
|
music
|
Used
|
to
|
make
|
me
|
smile
|
And
|
I
|
knew
|
if
|
I
|
had
|
my
|
chance
|
That
|
I
|
could
|
make
|
those
|
people
|
dance
|
And
|
maybe
|
they'd
|
be
|
happy
|
for
|
a
|
while
|
But
|
February
|
made
|
me
|
shiver
|
With
|
every
|
paper
|
I'd
|
deliver
|
Bad
|
news
|
on
|
the
|
doorstep
|
I
|
couldn't
|
take
|
one
|
more
|
step
|
I
|
can't
|
remember
|
if
|
I
|
cried
|
When
|
I
|
read
|
about
|
his
|
widowed
|
bride
|
Something
|
touched
|
me
|
deep
|
inside
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died
|
So,
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss
|
American
|
Pie
|
Drove
|
my
|
Chevy
|
to
|
the
|
levee,
|
but
|
the
|
levee
|
was
|
dry
|
And
|
them
|
good
|
ol'
|
boys
|
were
|
drinkin'
|
whiskey
|
and
|
rye
|
Singin',
|
This'll
|
be
|
the
|
day
|
that
|
I
|
die
|
This'll
|
be
|
the
|
day
|
that
|
I
|
die
|
|
Verse 2 & Chorus 2
|
Did
|
you
|
write
|
the
|
book
|
of
|
love
|
And
|
do
|
you
|
have
|
faith
|
in
|
God
|
above
|
If
|
the
|
Bible
|
tells
|
you
|
so?
|
Now,
|
do
|
you
|
believe
|
in
|
rock
|
'n'
|
roll
|
Can
|
music
|
save
|
your
|
mortal
|
soul
|
And
|
can
|
you
|
teach
|
me
|
how
|
to
|
dance
|
real
|
slow?
|
Well,
|
I
|
know
|
that
|
you're
|
in
|
love
|
with
|
him
|
'Cause
|
I
|
saw
|
you
|
dancin'
|
in
|
the
|
gym
|
You
|
both
|
kicked
|
off
|
your
|
shoes
|
Man,
|
I
|
dig
|
those
|
rhythm
|
and
|
blues
|
I
|
was
|
a
|
lonely
|
teenage
|
broncin'
|
buck
|
With
|
a
|
pink
|
carnation
|
and
|
a
|
pickup
|
truck
|
But
|
I
|
knew
|
I
|
was
|
out
|
of
|
luck
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died
|
I
|
started
|
singin',
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss
|
American
|
Pie
|
Drove
|
my
|
Chevy
|
to

Singin',
|
This'll

the

I

This'll

the

that

I

die

Verse 3 & Chorus 3
|
Now,
|
for
|
ten
|
years
|
we've
|
been
|
on
|
our
|
own
|
And
|
moss
|
grows
|
fat
|
on
|
a
|
rollin'
|
stone
|
But
|
that's
|
not
|
how
|
it
|
used
|
to
|
be
|
When
|
the
|
jester
|
sang
|
for
|
the
|
king
|
and
|
queen
|
In
|
a
|
coat
|
he
|
borrowed
|
from
|
James
|
Dean
|
And
|
a
|
voice
|
that
|
came
|
from
|
you
|
and
|
me
|
Oh,
|
and
|
while
|
the
|
king
|
was
|
looking
|
down
|
The
|
jester
|
stole
|
his
|
thorny
|
crown
|
The
|
courtroom
|
was
|
adjourned
|
No
|
verdict
|
was
|
returned
|
And
|
while
|
Lennin
|
read
|
a
|
book
|
on
|
Marx
|
A
|
quartet
|
practiced
|
in
|
the
|
park
|
And
|
we
|
sang
|
dirges
|
in
|
the
|
dark
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died
|
We
|
were
|
singin',
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss
|
American
|
Pie
|
Drove
|
my

Singin',

This'll

Verse 4 & Chorus 4
|
Helter
|
skelter
|
in
|
a
|
summer
|
swelter
|
The
|
birds
|
flew
|
off
|
with
|
a
|
fallout
|
shelter
|
Eight
|
miles
|
high
|
and
|
falling
|
fast
|
It
|
landed
|
foul
|
on
|
the
|
grass
|
The
|
players
|
tried
|
for
|
a
|
forward
|
pass
|
With
|
the
|
jester
|
on
|
the
|
sidelines
|
in
|
a
|
cast
|
Now,
|
the
|
halftime
|
air
|
was
|
sweet
|
perfume
|
While
|
sergeants
|
played
|
a
|
marching
|
tune
|
We
|
all
|
got
|
up
|
to
|
dance
|
Oh,
|
but
|
we
|
never
|
got
|
the
|
chance
|
'Cause
|
the
|
players
|
tried
|
to
|
take
|
the
|
field
|
The
|
marching
|
band
|
refused
|
to
|
yield
|
Do
|
you
|
recall
|
what
|
was
|
revealed
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died?
|
We
|
started
|
singin',
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss

American

Pie
|
Drove

Verse 5 & Chorus 5
|
Oh,
|
and
|
there
|
we
|
were
|
all
|
in
|
one
|
place
|
A
|
generation
|
lost
|
in
|
space
|
With
|
no
|
time
|
left
|
to
|
start
|
again
|
So,
|
come
|
on,
|
Jack
|
be
|
nimble,
|
Jack
|
be
|
quick
|
Jack
|
Flash
|
sat
|
on
|
a
|
candlestick
|
'Cause
|
fire
|
is
|
the
|
Devil's
|
only
|
friend
|
Oh,
|
and
|
as
|
I
|
watched
|
him
|
on
|
the
|
stage
|
My
|
hands
|
were
|
clenched
|
in
|
fists
|
of
|
rage
|
No
|
angel
|
born
|
in
|
Hell
|
Could
|
break
|
that
|
Satan
|
spell
|
And
|
as
|
the
|
flames
|
climbed
|
high
|
into
|
the
|
night
|
To
|
light
|
the
|
sacrificial
|
rite
|
I
|
saw
|
Satan
|
laughing
|
with
|
delight
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died
|
He
|
was
|
singin',
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss
|
American
|
Pie
|
Drove
|
my

Chevy

Verse 6 & Chorus 6
|
I
|
met
|
a
|
girl
|
who
|
sang
|
the
|
blues
|
And
|
I
|
asked
|
her
|
for
|
some
|
happy
|
news
|
But
|
she
|
just
|
smiled
|
and
|
turned
|
away
|
I
|
went
|
down
|
to
|
the
|
sacred
|
store
|
Where
|
I'd
|
heard
|
the
|
music
|
years
|
before
|
But
|
the
|
man
|
there
|
said
|
the
|
music
|
wouldn't
|
play
|
And
|
in
|
the
|
streets
|
the
|
children
|
screamed
|
The
|
lovers
|
cried,
|
and
|
the
|
poets
|
dreamed
|
But
|
not
|
a
|
word
|
was
|
spoken
|
The
|
church
|
bells
|
all
|
were
|
broken
|
And
|
the
|
three
|
men
|
I
|
admire
|
most
|
The
|
Father,
|
Son
|
and
|
the
|
Holy
|
Ghost
|
They
|
caught
|
the
|
last
|
train
|
for
|
the
|
coast
|
The
|
day
|
the
|
music
|
died
|
And
|
they
|
were
|
singin',
|
bye,
|
bye,
|
Miss
|
American
|
Pie
|
Drove
|

It is interesting to look at the answer stats to see which words have likely been "misheard" the most.
Otherwise, awesome quiz!
