Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Am]When Michael died,
people all over the world did the moon walk and the thriller
When Patrick died,
people all over the world tried to do that lift
When Farrah died, people all over the world
feathered their hair and put on hot pants
When John Hughes died,
people all over the world said Bueller, Bueller
Well today we lost another hero
[F]Today we [Am]lost another friend
Today we lost the world's
greatest manager
Today we lost the captain, yeah
Today we lost the captain

[Verse 2]
I hope a [Am]million elbows drop [C]and
a million heads get locked
And a [D]million beards get [C]banded
[Am]and a million bodies slammed
[Dm]A mill[C]ion piles driv[D]en and a[E] milli[Am]on lives start livin[Dm]g because you neve[C]r,
[Am]ever know when it will be your time to go
No you never,
ever know when it will be your time to go

[Verse 3]
He was [Am]often imitated but you cannot duplicate the one who thought you how to win,
the one who taught you how to have fun
Really, really changed me as
a kid back in the 80's
The first time I saw him he
seemed colorful and crazy
In my baggy jams and my different color sneaks they could do what I could do and even
if I got teased I know I'm not the only kid my age who feels they have to owe you
You set a generation of freaks
free with your persona
With your rubber banded face and
your rubber [F]banded beard
You [Am]gave a lot of kids permission [F]to
let out their inner weird
[Am]So here's to you
[F]Captain [Am]Lou yeah, I love you yeah
Captain Lou, Captain Lou yeah,
I love you yeah
Captain Lou, Captain Lou yeah,
I love you yeah
Captain [F]Lou, Captain [Am]Lou yeah,
I love you yeah
Captain Lou, Captain Lou yeah,
I love you [C]yeah
I [A]hope a

[Verse 4]
million [Am]elbows drop [C]and
a million heads get locked
And a [D]million [Dm]beards get [C]banded
[Am]and a million bodies slammed
[D]A mil[C]lion piles dri[D]ven and a mil[Am]lion lives start liv[D]ing because you nev[C]er,
[Am]ever know when it will be your time to [C]go
[D]No [C]you[Am][Dm][C][Dm][Am][D]
[C]never,
[Am]ever know when it will be your time to go
No you never,
ever know when it will be your time to go
No you never,
ever know when it will be your time to go
No you [C]never, ever know [Am]when[D][C][Am][F][C][D]
