[Chorus]
Well, that'll be the day, when you say goodbye (Ah-ah)
Yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry (Ah-ah)
You say you're gonna leave, you know it's a lie (Ah-ah)
'Cause that'll be the day when I die

[Verse 1]
Well, you give me all your loving and your turtle doving (Ooh-ooh)
All your hugs and kisses and your money too (Ooh-ooh)
Well, you know you love me baby, until you tell me, maybe (Ooh)
That some day, well, I'll be through

[Chorus]
Well, that'll be the day, when you say goodbye (Ah-ah)
Yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry (Ah-ah)
You say you're 'gonna leave, you know it's a lie (Ah-ah)
'Cause that'll be the day when I die

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
Well, that'll be the day, when you say goodbye (Ah-ah)
Yes, that'll be the day, when you make me cry (Ah-ah)
You say you're 'gonna leave, you know it's a lie (Ah-ah)
'Cause that'll be the day when I die
