The Song Remembers When

(início)

Capo 3
INTRO:  D   G   D   G   D
VERSE 1:
      A7
I was standing at the counter,
      A7
I was waiting for the change,
       A7                            D
When I heard that old familiar music start.
       A7
It was like a lighted match,
         A7
had been tossed into my soul,
       A7                          D
It was like a dam had broken in my heart.
      G
After taking every detour,
        G
Gettin' lost and losin' track,
        D
So that even if I wanted,
        D
I could not find my way back.
      G
After drivin' out the memory,
       G
Of the way things might have been,
      A7
After I'd forgotten all about us,
                   D       G
The song remembers when.
VERSE 2:
        A7
We were rollin' through the Rockies,
        A7
We were up above the clouds,
       A7                               D
When a station out of Jackson played that song.
       A7
And it seemed to fit the moment,
        A7
And the moment seemed to freeze,
        A7                            D
When we turned the music up and sang along.
          G
And there was a God in Heaven,
        G
And the world made perfect sense,
        D
We were young and were in love,
            D
And we were easy to convince.
        G
We were headed straight for Eden,
       G
It was just around the bend,
    A7                               A
And though I have forgotten all about it,
                   D
The song remembers when.
BRDIGE:
        G
I guess something must have happened,
       G                   Bm
And we must have said good-bye.
       E7
And my heart must have been broken,
       A7
Though I can't recall just why,
 NC               D      G   D   G
The song remembers when.
VERSE 3:
          A7
Well, for all the miles between us,
        A7
And for all the time that's past,
          A7                          D
You would think I haven't gotten very far.
      A7
And I hope my hasty heart,
        A7
Will forgive me just this once,
     A7                          D
If I stop to wonder how on earth you are.
           G
But that's just a lot of water,
     G
Underneath a bridge I burned,
            D
And there's no use in backtracking,
       D
Around corners I have turned.
        G
Still I guess some things we bury,
         G
Are just bound to rise again,
    A7
For even if the whole world has forgotten,
                   D
The song remembers when.
ENDING:
          A7
Yeah, and even if the whole world has forgotten,
 NC               D      G   D   G   D
The song remembers when.
