NOTE: I'm not trying to step on anyone's toes, it's just that the original

tab was not in the right key. This song has a key change at the end, that

was not noted in the original tab.

Intro: (E) (E) (A) (B) (E) (E)

I was (B5) goin' through the closet

Back in (C#5) my old home

Found my (A5) letterman's jacket, so I sl(B5)ipped it on.

Deep in the pocket, still (C#5) folded up tight

Was the (A5) letter you wrote to (B5) tell me goodbye.

The minute I saw it I (C#5) just had to smile

It (A5) smelled like old leather, as sm(B5)ooth as a child.

I took a deep breath, then (C#5) put it away.

There was no (A5) need to read, I knew just (B5) what it would say.

I know the (E) words by heart, I know (B) every line

From (C#m) "this ain't easy" to "you'll (A) get along just (B) fine."

I know (E) every comma, every (B) question mark.

No, I don't (F#m) have to look, I know the (A) words (B) by (E) heart.

(B5) Scenes like home movies (C#5) flashed through my head.

That (A5) homecoming game, to that (B5) night on my bed.

The words that you wrote still (C#5) cut me in two,

How you (A5) said you still cared but (B5) that we were through.

REPEAT CHORUS

(C#m) Ain't it funny how a (B) memory (A) can play

tricks on your mind.

I don't re(C#m)member a thing from my (B) classes

But I can (F#m) quote you (E) every (A) line. (B)

I (C#5) took off my jacket and (B5) put it away

With your (A5) note in the pocket

Like I (B5) found it that day.

Poured me a beer, then (C#5) pictured your face

And drank a (D) silent toast to things that (E) time can't erase

KEY CHANGE

I know the (A) words by heart, I know (E) every line

From (F#m) "this ain't easy" to "you'll (D) get along just (E) fine."

I know (A) every comma, every (E) question mark.

No, I don't (F#m) have to look, I know the (D) words (E) by (A) heart.

I know the (A) words by heart, I know (E) every line

From (F#m) "this ain't easy" to "you'll (D) get along just (E) fine."

I know (A) every comma, every (E) question mark.

No, I don't (F#m) have to look, I know the (D) words (E) by (A) heart.
