Got the news on Friday mornin' But a tear I couldn't find You showed me how I'm supposed to live And now you showed me how to die I was lost till Sunday morning I work 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 want to 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'd heard a thousand times it just said Sorry that I missed you Leave a message and god bless I know you think I'm crazy But I had to hear your voice again 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 want to 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 And 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 want to 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'
