Got the news on Friday morning, but a tear I couldn't find
You showed me how I am supposed to live
And now you showed me how to die
I was lost 'til Sunday morning, I woke up to face my fear
While writing you this goodbye song, I found a tear
I'm gonna miss that smile, I'm gonna miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I'd do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven 'cause that's right where you wanna be
I'm not cryin' 'cause I feel so sorry for you, I'm cryin' for me
I got up and dialed your number, and your voice came on the line
With that old familiar message I heard a thousand times
It just said, sorry that I missed you, leave a message and God bless
I know that you think I'm crazy, but I just had to hear your voice I guess
I'm gonna miss that smile, I'm gonna miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I'd do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven 'cause that's right where you wanna be
I'm not cryin' 'cause I feel so sorry for you, I'm cryin' for me
So play your upside down, left-handed, backwards bass guitar
I'll see you on the other side, superstar
I'm gonna miss that smile, I'm gonna miss you my friend
Even though it hurts the way it ended up, I'd do it all again
So play it sweet in heaven 'cause that's right where you wanna be
I'm not cryin' 'cause I feel so sorry for you, I'm cryin' for me
I'm still cryin', I'm cryin' for me, I'm still cryin'

love this song. It was played at my cousin's funeral last week. Everytime I hear it I think of him. Fits perfect. Thanks

This reminds me of one of my friends that just recently p****ed away. She was the kindest soul that anyone could have ever come to know. And even though it ended sadly, i would gladly do it over again if I had the choice. This ones for you Alex, I love you and god bless... : ) -- Great song by the way
