But from a book in the library, I learned that Holly's original version used these chords with a capo on the fifth fret, so it was actually in A. Ronstadt's is in F, so use a capo on the first fret.] [Holly's version also includes this easy and cool riff:] |--------0-----0-----0---|-----h2---2-------------| |----------0-----0-----0-|----------0-------------| |----3/4-----3-----2-----|1---0h2---2-------------| |------------------------|2---0h1---1-------------| |------------------------|2---0h2---2-------------| |------------------------|------------------------| ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ ^ A A Well, that'll be the day, when you say good-bye E E That'll be the day, when you make me cry A A You say you're gonna leave me, you know that's a lie 'cause E [stop] That'll be the day when I die A A Well, that'll be the day, when you say good-bye E E That'll be the day, when you make me cry A A You say you're gonna leave me, you know that's a lie 'cause E [stop] B7 - E That'll be the day when I die A E Well, you gave me all your lovin' and your turtle dovin' A E All your hugs and kisses and your money too A E You know you love me baby, still you tell me, baby F# B7 That some day, well, I'll be through Well, that'll be the day, when you say good-bye That'll be the day, when you make me cry You say you're gonna leave me, you know that's a lie 'cause That'll be the day when I die A E A E A E F# B7 [guitar solo] A A E E A A E B7 - E [guitar solo] Well, that'll be the day, when you say good-bye That'll be the day, when you make me cry You say you're gonna leave me, you know that's a lie 'cause That'll be the day when I die When Cupid shot his dart, he shot it at your heart So if we ever part, and I leave you You kiss and hold me, and you tell me boldly, well (?)
