- Goodbye or good-bye? - WordReference Forums
I am almost certain that the Chicago Manual of Style advocates for goodbye, but I don't have it handy to check I believe that good-bye is an older usage The tendency (at least in the American writing an editing profession) has been to eliminate hyphens when they don't add clarity or meaning
