G
I’ve been down this road before
Am
I remember every tree
D
Every single blade of grass
G
Holds a special place for me
And i remember every town
Am
And every hotel room
D
And every song i ever sang
G
On a guitar out of tune
[chorus]
C
I remember everything
G
Things i can’t forget
A7
The way you turned and smiled on me
D
On the night that we first met
C
And i remember every night
G
Your ocean eyes of blue
D/F#
How i miss you in the morning light
G
Like roses miss the dew
[verse]
G
I’ve been down this road before
Am
Alone as i can be
D
Careful not to let my past
G
Go sneaking up on me
G
Got no future in my happiness
Am
Though regrets are very few
D
Sometimes a little tenderness
G
Was the best that i could do
[chorus]
C
I remember everything
G
Things i can’t forget
A7
Swimming pools of butterflies
D
That slipped right through the net
C
And i remember every night
G
Your ocean eyes of blue
D/F#
How i miss you in the morning light
G
Like roses miss the dew
D/F#
How i miss you in the morning light
G C G
