VERSE 1:
I was (
C7)standing at the counter,
I was (
C7)waiting for the change,
When I (
C7)heard that old familiar music (F)start.
It was (
C7)like a lighted match,
had been (
C7)tossed into my soul,
It was (
C7)like a dam had broken in my (F)heart.
After (
A#)taking every detour,
Gettin' (
A#)lost and losin' track,
So that (
F)even if I wanted,
I could (
F)not find my way back.
After (
A#)drivin' out the memory,
Of the (
A#)way things might have been,
After (
C7)I'd forgotten all about us,
The song remembers (F)when. (
A#)
VERSE 2:
We were (
C7)rollin' through the Rockies,
We were (
C7)up above the clouds,
When a (
C7)station out of Jackson played that (F)song.
And it (
C7)seemed to fit the moment,
And the (
C7)moment seemed to freeze,
When we (
C7)turned the music up and sang a-(F)long.
And there (
A#)was a God in Heaven,
And the (
A#)world made perfect sense,
We were (
F)young and were in love,
And we were (
F)easy to convince.
We were (
A#)headed straight for Eden,
It was (
A#)just around the bend,
And (
C7)though I have forgotten all about it,
The song remembers (
F)when.
BRDIGE:
I guess (
A#)something must have happened,
And we (
A#)must have said good-(Dm)bye.
And my (
G7)heart must have been broken,
Though (
C7)I can't recall just why, (m.c.)
The song remembers (
F)when. (
A#) (
F) (
A#)
VERSE 3:
Well, for (
C7)all the miles between us,
And for (
C7)all the time that's past,
You would (
C7)think I haven't gotten very (F)far.
And I (
C7)hope my hasty heart,
Will for-(
C7)give me just this once,
If I (
C7)stop to wonder how on earth (F)you are.
But that's (
A#)just a lot of water,
Under-(
A#)neath a bridge I burned,
And there's (
F)no use in backtracking,
Around (
F)corners I have turned.
Still I (
A#)guess some things we bury,
Are just (
A#)bound to rise again,
For (
C7)even if the whole world has forgotten,
The song remembers (
F)when.
ENDING:
Yeah, and (
C7)even if the whole world has forgotten, (n.c.)
The song remembers (
F)when. (
A#) (
F) (
