[00:01.77]A long long time ago.
[00:04.70]I can sitll remember how.
[00:07.64]That music used 2 make me smile.
[00:12.46]And I knew  that if I had my chance.
[00:16.10]That I could make those people dance.
[00:19.46]And maybe they'd be happy 4 a while.
[00:29.66]
[00:41.59]Did U write the book of love.
[00:44.17]And do U have faith in God above.
[00:48.91]If the Bible tells U so?
[00:53.86]Now do U believe in rock & roll?
[00:57.82]Can music save Ur mortal soul?
[01:01.87]And can U teach me.
[01:04.18]How 2 dance real slowly?
[01:09.19]Well, I know that U're in love with him.
[01:12.58]'Cause I saw U dancing in the gym.
[01:17.34]U both kicked off Ur shoes.
[01:19.99]Man,I dig those rhythm & blues.
[01:24.54]I was a lonely teenage broncin' buck.
[01:28.65]With a pink carnation & a pickup truck.
[01:32.20]But I knew that I was out of luck.
[01:36.54]The day the music died.
[01:42.99]I started singin'
[03:47.13][03:14.00][01:44.62]Bye,bye Miss American Pie.
[03:50.01][03:17.06][01:47.15]Drove my chivy 2 the levee.
[03:51.83][03:19.09][01:50.01]But the levee was dry.
[03:54.29][03:21.20][01:51.91]Then goo dole boys.
[03:55.54][03:23.06][01:54.63]Were drinking whiskey & rye.
[03:57.87][03:24.94][01:55.53]Singin' this'll be the day that I die.
[04:01.66][03:29.24][01:59.64]This'll be the day that I die.
[03:38.95][02:05.50]
[02:09.90]I met a girl who sang the blues.
[02:12.82]And I asked her 4 some happy new.
[02:17.38]But she just smiled & turned away.
[02:22.45]Then I went down 2 the sacred store.
[02:26.31]Where I'd heard the music years before.
[02:30.30]But the man there said.
[02:32.86]The music wouldn't play.
[02:37.79]Well now in the streets the children screamed.
[02:41.97]The lovers cried & the poets dreamed.
[02:45.81]But not a word was spoken.
[02:49.84]The church bells all were broken.
[02:53.22]And the three men I admire most-
[02:57.30]The Father,Son,& the Holy Ghost-
[03:01.08]They caught the last train 4 the coast.
[03:05.12]The day the music died.
[04:07.23][03:11.52]We started singing.
[04:18.46][04:14.67][04:10.85]We started singing.
