[Intro]
N.C.
One, two, three, four
 
 
[Verse 1: RAYE]
B This is a sad song
B Though it feels happy
Gmaj7 It is not happy at all
B Fm7In fact, it makes me so, so sad to sing this song
Gm Bmaj7 But I'll sing it for you anyway
FThis song is called "Goodbye Henry."
BAnd I wrote it 'bout a boy
B A very lovely boy
Gmaj7And his name isn't even Henry
BBut I'm just tryna be respectful
Fm7We don't talk anymore
GmHe could be next-door and I wouldn't even know
Bmaj7In another life we could have made it
FBut in this one, well, we let go
 
 
[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
BAnd I remember last time I seen him
BIt was a devastating day
Gmaj7At the railway tavern my local
B7And we had no words to say
FmSo I sipped my gin in silence
GmAnd I kissed the man goodbye
Bmaj7And we dried each other's tears
FAnd I told him, "Henry
 
 
[Chorus: RAYE]
BOh, I wish you only love (Only love)
BAnd happiness (Happiness)"
Gmaj7When I'm swallowing tears
B7As I'm watching you drive away
Fm7Through my window
GmI don't want you to go
Bmaj7 FHow could I baby? Oh-oh (I miss you so)
BI Do hope you'll try your best (Try)
BAnd you'll drink a little less
Gmaj7Let's pretend, Henry
B7Maybe one day we could try again
Fm7 GmDon't forget me (Don't forget me) or regret me (Regret me)
BI tell him "Goodbye, Henry"
F B I told you this was a sad song
 
 
[Verse 2: RAYE]
B I did try to warn you, in case you relate
Gmaj7 Bm In case your sorry heart is also breaking
Fm7 GmIn case you're driving to work and every bloody left turn you take
BJust so happens to be down memory lane
FAnd it's that pain, the aching kind
 
 
[Pre-Chorus: RAYE]
BI had high hopes for me and Henry
BI really did
Gmaj7 B7In another life I'd wear his ring, and we'd have three beautiful children
Fm7And it hurts to never see him
GmBut the world still turns 'round
Bmaj7 FSo I squeezed his lovely hand so tight, and I told him
 
 
[Chorus: RAYE]
B"Oh, I wish you only love (Only love)
BAnd happiness (Happiness)"
Gmaj7When I'm swallowing tears
B7As I'm watching you drive away
Fm7Through my window
GmI don't want you to go
Bmaj7 FHow could I, baby? Oh-oh (I miss you so)
BI Do hope you'll try your best
BAnd you'll drink a little less
Gmaj7And who knows, Henry?
B7Maybe one day we could try again
Fm7 GmDon't forget me (Don't forget me) or regret me (Regret me)
B FI tell him, "Goodbye, Henry"
B BI told you this was a sad song
 
 
[Interlude: RAYE]
Gmaj7 But it is my pleasure
B Fm7 Gm To say that all the way from Memphis, Tennessee
BPut your hands together (Put your hands)
BLadies and gentlemen
F Bmaj7For Al Green
 
 
[Bridge: Al Green, RAYE]
BHello, how are you? I hope you're well
Gmaj7 B7 It's nice to be on a microphone with a story to tell
Fm7 I think of all the memories
Gm Some bitter, some sweet
B F The people I've loved, and the people I'll never get to greet
BThese heartaches don't get easier (Easier)
BPains of losing love (Losing love)
Gmaj7Time will help the healing
B7And Christ that's up above
Fm7 GmSometimes in life we have to say goodbye
BTears falling from our eyes
FI pray it won't hurt like it does tonight
 
 
[Chorus: RAYE, Al Green]
N.C. B

GmI don't want you to go
B BbHow could I, baby? Oh-oh (Oh)
FbI Do hope you'll try your best
G Fbmaj7And you'll drink a little less (And who knows, Henry?)

Bbm7 Gm7 Fb B F Don't forget, don't forget, don't forget, lo-lo-lo-lo-love

Fmaj7Wherever he is (Feeling better now)
He's happy, he's safe

[Outro: RAYE]
Bbm Bb7And I guess sometimes that's just how it goes
Fbm Sometimes love sticks around
Cm7 And sometimes love hits the road
B B And as I watch Henry drive out of my life
Fbm7 Bbm7 Fbm7 I warned you, dear listener, didn't I?
CWhen I told you this is a sad, sad, sad song
Bmaj7Drop it here
Hahaha, Brooksy can't see me
