"Goodbye, Dear Friend (Cover)" lyrics

"Goodbye, Dear Friend (Cover)"
(originally by Deer Tick)

Some roads that you take
Some bonds will choose to break
I swore I'd no longer be the pallbearer
But I carried you to bed
So you could rest your head
You were taking off a load, heavy drinking

The world, it carries on
Your memories in songs
And your pictures on my wall
Are not forgotten

And all the bobbing heads in sync
And all have got a lot on their minds to think about

But you carry on
In pictures and in songs
And the unmade bed you slept in
Where I laid you down to rest one last time
Goodbye, dear friend
Goodbye, dear friend

Some stories break your heart
And some with such applaud
Buried deep inside where it's okay to cry
Some boys won't shed a tear
But with a tale like this here
It can break me down and get me where it hurts the most

And all the bobbing heads in sync
And all have got a lot on their minds to think about

But you carry on
In pictures and in songs
And the unmade bed you slept in
Where I laid you down to rest one last time
Goodbye, dear friend
Goodbye, dear friend
Goodbye, dear friend
Goodbye, dear friend
