(1999) Rosemary (Remember Me) Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]Do you remember when
you [C]walked with me
[D]down the street into the [C]square?
[Em]How the women selling rose[C]mary
[D]pressed the branches to your [C]chest,
promised luck and all the [D]rest,
Put their fingers in your [C]hair[Em]
I had met you just the [C]day before
[D]Like an accident of [C]fate
[Em]In the window there
be[C]hind your door
[D]How I wanted to break [C]into that room
beneath your [D]skin,
but all that would have [C]to wait.
In [Em]the caravan of martyrs,
with the [C]statues in the courtyard,
whose [F]heads and hands were taken
in the [G]burden of the sun.
[Em]I had come to meet you
with a [C]question in my footsteps,
I was [F]going up the hillside
and the [G]journey just [Em]begun
My sister says she [C]never dreams at night
[D]There are days when I know why[C]
[Em]Those possibilities within [C]her sight
[D]With no way of coming tru[C]e,
cause some things just don't get [D]through
into this world, although they [C]try.
In [Em]the carmen of the martyrs,
the [C]statues in the courtyard,
whose [F]heads and hands were taken
in the [G]burden of the sun.
[Em]I had come to meet you,
with a [C]question in my footsteps.
Go[F]ing up to hillside,
the jour[G]ney just begun
And [Em]all I [C]know of [F]you
is in [G]my memory
And [Em]all I [C]ask is y[F]ou r[G]emember me you
