F#m                         E
Mr. President, you asked to see me?

[WASHINGTON]
                  F#m
I know you’re busy

                      E
What do you need, sir? Sir?

I wanna give you a word of warning

Sir, I don’t know what you heard

But whatever it is, Jefferson started it

Thomas Jefferson resigned this morning

You’re kidding

F#m            E
I need a favor

Whatever you say, sir, Jefferson will pay for his behavior

Shh. Talk less

I’ll use the press
    E                                                         F#m
I’ll write under a pseudonym, you’ll see what I can do to him—

I need you to draft an address

    E
Yes! He resigned. You can finally speak your mind—

   D                                    C#5
No, he’s stepping down so he can run for President

Ha. Good luck defeating you, sir

Relax, have a drink with me
A        G
One last time
             D       E
Let’s take a break tonight

Sir, with Britain and France on the verge of war, is this the best time—

Pick up a pen, start writing

I wanna talk about what I have learned

The hard-won wisdom I have earned

As far as the people are concerned

The people will hear from me

One last time

And if we get this right
            A                E
We’re gonna teach ‘em how to say

Goodbye

You and I—


Interlude: 
    D
Mr. President, they will say you’re weak
   C                                     D
No, they will see we’re strong

Your position is so unique

        C                    
So I’ll use it to move them along

D
Why do you have to say goodbye?

     C                                      D
If I say goodbye, the nation learns to move on
                        G     Bb
It outlives me when I’m gone
         C
Like the scripture says:
C#m                            E            Dsus2  A/D   A
Everyone shall sit under their own vine and fig    tree
    E                       F#m
And no one shall make them afraid.”
           E                  D          A  E  F#m
They’ll be safe in the nation we’ve made

I wanna sit under my own vine and fig tree
         E            F#m
A moment alone in the shade
   E             D
At home in this nation we’ve made
         A
One last time

              G    A
One last time

incidents of my administration,
       Gm                                   D
I am unconscious of intentional error, I am nevertheless 
            A                              G
Too sensible of my defects not to think it probable that

After forty-five years of my life

dedicated to its service with an upright zeal
    D
The faults of incompetent abilities will be
             A
Consigned to oblivion, 

as I myself must soon be to the mansions of rest

To realize the sweet enjoyment of partaking, in the midst of my fellow-citizens, 
    D                                     C
The benign influence of good laws Under a free government, the ever-favorite object

Of my heart, and the happy reward, as I trust

Of our mutual cares, labors, and dangers.
