              Gm                   
Why I want to talk about neutrality

As far as the people are concerned
            Ebmaj7                           
You have to serve you could continue to serve

Gb Eb                                    
■  Mr President they will say you're weak

No They will see we're strong

Your position is so unique
        Db                       
So I'll use it to move them along
Eb                            
Why do you have to say goodbye
     Db                               Eb     
If I say goodbye the nation learns to move on
                    Ab  B   
It outlives me when I'm gone


[Chorus]
Db                      
Like the scripture says:
Gm                 F                        Eb  Bb  
Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig tree
                 Ab        Gm    
And no one shall make them afraid
           F                  Eb         Bb
They'll be safe in the nation we've made ■ 
F Gm           F                             Eb   Bb
■ ■  I want to sit under my own vine and fig tree ■ 
         Gm                
A moment alone in the shade
        F              Eb        
At home in this nation we've made
         Bb  
One last time
         Ab   Bb
One last time ■ 


[Verse]
Eb                                                    
Though in reviewing the incidents of my administration
  Eb                                 
I am unconscious of intentional error
     Eb                                     
I am nevertheless too sensible of my defects
Bb                                                            
Not to think it probable that I may have committed many errors
Eb              Bb                         
■  I shall also carry with me the hope that
           Cm                            
My country will view them with indulgence
         Eb    Bb                        
And that after fortyfive years of my life
Ab                                           
Dedicated to its service with an upright zeal
    Eb                                                   Bbsus4  
The faults of incompetent abilities will be consigned to oblivion
                      Bb7                   Eb  
As I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest
                                            Db     
I anticipate with pleasing expectation that retreat
           Ab                Eb     
In which I promise myself to realize
          Eb                    
The sweet enjoyment of partaking
                Db               
In the midst of my fellowcitizens
    Eb                           
The benign influence of good laws
        Db             
Under a free government
    Ab                             
The everfavorite object of my heart
    Eb        Db               
And the happy reward as I trust
       Ab     B                        Db
Of our mutual cares labors and dangers ■ 


[Chorus]
    Eb   Db  
One last time
          Eb                
Teach 'em how to say goodbye
    Db     Ab Eb   Db
You ■  and ■  ■  I ■ 
Eb    Ab Db  
Going ■  home
Ab          Eb          Db              
History has its eyes on you you you yeah
Ab          Cm               
We're gonna teach them how to
    Cm7    
Say goodbye
Eb                           
Teach them how to say goodbye
Bb7 Db         
To  say goodbye
    Ab     
Say goodbye
B            
One last time
Db   Eb Ab Eb
Time ■  ■  ■
