That’ll Be The Day by Buddy Holly (Chords And Lyrics)

chorus

  Well, that'll be the day, when you say goodbye.
  Yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry.
  You say you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie
  'Cause that'll be the day when I die.

Well, you give me all your loving and your turtle doving,
All your hugs and kisses and your money too,
Well, you know you love me baby, until you tell me, maybe,
That some day, well I'll be through.

chorus - twelve bar blues solo - chorus

Well, when Cupid shot his dart he shot it at your heart
So if we ever part and I leave you.
You sit and hold me and you tell me boldly
That some day, well I'll be blue.

chorus

Well, that'll be the day, woo hoo.
That'll be the day, woo hoo.
That'll be the day, woo hoo.
That'll be the day.
