Yearwood Trisha - Song Remembers When guitar tab

Here is a song for which I have worked out the chords. This is only the

second song that I have tackled on my own, but I think its pretty close to

the CD. I have been wanting to get the tab done for it, but I think that's

a little too much for me to chew off at this time. Also, I wish I could

play it more easily on the guitar -- I am a fairly new player, and the

chords in this song are tricky for me to play! Anyway, here it is:

INTRO:

[F] [A#] [F] [A#] [F]

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] [A#] [F]
