[00:00.000] 作曲 : Don McLean
[00:04.460] A long long time ago
[00:08.268] I can still remember how that music used to make me smile
[00:18.415] And I knew if I had my chance
[00:22.183] That I could make those people dance
[00:25.752] And maybe they'd be happy for a while.
[00:33.523] But February made me shiver
[00:37.176] With every paper I'd deliver
[00:40.557] Bad news on the doorstep
[00:44.154] I couldn't take one more step
[00:48.187] I can't remember if I cried
[00:51.497] When I read about his widowed bride
[00:55.042] But something touched me deep inside
[00:59.562] The day the music died
[01:09.583] So Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[01:14.091] Drove my chevy to the levee
[01:16.699] But the levee was dry
[01:19.377] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[01:24.096] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[01:29.307] This'll be the day that I die
[01:35.074] Did you write the Book of Love
[01:37.964] And do you have faith in God above
[01:42.292] If the Bible tells you so
[01:46.427] Do you believe in rock 'n roll
[01:49.923] Can music save your mortal soul
[01:54.087] And can you teach me how to dance real slow
[01:59.753] Well' I know that you're in love with him
[02:03.448] 'Cause I saw you dancin' in the gym
[02:07.237] You both kicked off your shoes
[02:10.309] Man' I dig those rhythm and blue
[02:13.700] I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck
[02:17.484] With a pink carnation and a packup truck
[02:20.576] But I knew I was out of luck
[02:23.989] The day the music died
[02:30.028] I started singin'
[02:31.121] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[02:33.964] Drove my chevy to the levee
[02:35.775] But the levee was dry
[02:37.787] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[02:40.980] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[02:44.722] This'll be the day that I die
[02:49.553] Now for ten years we've been on our own
[02:52.918] And moss grows fat on a rollin' stone
[02:56.164] But that's not how it used to be
[03:01.660] When the jester sang for the King and Queen
[03:05.093] In a coat he borrowed from James Dean
[03:08.460] And a voice that came from you and me
[03:15.027] Oh' and while the King was looking down
[03:18.879] The jester stole his thorny crown
[03:22.098] The courtroom was adjourned
[03:25.456] No verdict was returned
[03:28.819] And while Lennon read a book of Marx
[03:32.179] The quartet practiced in the park
[03:35.308] And we sang dirges in the dark
[03:38.707] The day the music died
[03:44.956] We were singing
[03:45.945] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[03:48.944] Drove my chevy to the levee
[03:50.711] But the levee was dry
[03:52.612] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[03:55.750] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[03:59.586] This'll be the day that I die
[04:04.929] Helter Skelter in a summer swelter
[04:07.599] The Byrds flew off with a fallout shelter
[04:11.757] Eight miles high and falling fast
[04:16.628] It landed foul out on the grass
[04:20.056] The players tried for a forward pass
[04:23.125] With the jester on the sidelines in a cast
[04:30.087] Now the half-time air was sweet perfume
[04:33.841] While the Sergeants played a marching tune
[04:37.120] We all got up to dance
[04:40.008] Oh' but we never got the chance
[04:43.749] 'Cause the players tried to take the field
[04:47.053] The marching band refused to yield
[04:50.223] Do you recall what was revealed
[04:53.598] The day the music died
[04:59.806] We started singing
[05:00.818] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[05:03.877] Drove my chevy to the levee
[05:05.527] But the levee was dry
[05:07.508] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[05:10.723] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[05:14.532] This'll be the day that I die
[05:18.296] Oh' and there we were all in one place
[05:23.038] A generation Lost in Space
[05:26.445] With no time left to start again
[05:31.208] So come on' Jack be nimble' Jack be quick
[05:34.933] Jack Flash sat on a candlestick
[05:39.164] 'Cause fire is the Devil's only friend
[05:44.879] Oh' and as I watched him on the stage
[05:48.615] My hands were clenched in fists of rage
[05:52.124] No angel born in hell
[05:55.469] Could break that Satan's spell
[05:58.047] And as the flames climbed high into the night
[06:01.779] To light the sacrifical rite
[06:05.229] I saw Satan laughing with deligh
[06:08.531] The day the music died
[06:14.740] He was singing
[06:15.753] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[06:19.089] Drove my chevy to the levee
[06:20.004] But the levee was dry
[06:22.436] And them good old boys were drinkin' whiskey and rye
[06:25.593] Singin' this'll be the day that I die
[06:29.366] This'll be the day that I die
[06:35.846] I met a girl who sang the blues
[06:38.997] And I asked her for some happy news
[06:43.147] But she just smiled and turned away
[06:48.678] And I went down to the sacred store
[06:52.416] Where I'd heard the music years before
[06:55.793] But the man there said the music wouldn't play
[07:04.116] And in the streets the children screamed
[07:07.601] The lovers cried' and the poets dreamed
[07:11.251] But not a word was spoken
[07:14.425] The church bells all were broken
[07:18.598] And the three men I admire most
[07:22.379] The Father' Son and the Holy Ghost
[07:25.873] They caught the last train for the coast
[07:30.618] The day the music died
[07:39.975] And they were singing
[07:41.760] Bye-bye' Miss American Pie
[07:46.043] Drove my chevy to the levee
