Goodbye, Maria
    G                      D
Goodbye from our honeymoon room
D
Goodbye, Maria
    D                     G
Goodbye from this flowery room

    G
You know you were my first love
    G          C
The only one I found
        C
But you  couldn't stand me so
G
 You outran me and
D                   G
 Shot my poor heart down

[Verse 1]
G
While I write this letter
                        D
From room number thirty nine

It's where we spent our first night
                        G
Since then I've been so blind

  G
I knew that there were others
                                 C
But you didn't have to say their name
        C
Now I'm leaving forev'r
        G
From the  Sunset Motel
         D                     G
'Cause I  just can't stand the pain

[Chorus]
G
Goodbye, Maria
    G                      D
Goodbye from our honeymoon room
D
Goodbye, Maria
    D                     G
Goodbye from this flowery room

    G
You know you were my first love
    G          C
The only one I found
        C
But you  couldn't stand me so
G
 You outran me and
D                   G
 Shot my poor heart down

[Bridge]
     G
I've driven through the night, dear
                    D
Been weepin' at the wheel
     D
That neon sunset in the sky
                G
All seems so surreal

       G
Now my finger's on the trigger
                   C
The barrel's in my mouth
      C
When I  see your eyes then I
G
 Realize that I
D            G    D
 Didn't even count

[Chorus]
G
Goodbye, Maria
    G                      D
Goodbye from our honeymoon room
D
Goodbye, Maria
    D                     G
Goodbye from this flowery room

    G
You know you were my first love
    G          C
The only one I found
        C
But you  couldn't stand me so
G
 You outran me and
D                   G
 Shot my poor heart down
