Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[C][F][C]
[G][C]

[Verse 1]
[C](Merle Haggard)

[Verse 2]
September in Miami marks [F]the time
and the place
I first laid [C]eyes on you
I was there to spend the winter
Keepin' warm the only way [G]I knew.
It was [C]way down in the fall

[Verse 3]
[C]
before I [F]realized at all
It'd be a spe[C]cial place and time
September in Miami
Is [G]more than just a memory of [C]mine.

[Verse 4]
The [C]winter found the beaches
filled with [F]pretty girls
And lonely boy [C]away from home
All the sunshine and laughter
could you know
They matched the happiness [G]I'd known.

[Verse 5]
You [C]went away to somewhere on
[F]the day before thanksgiving day
But I [C]didn't cry
And the lonely weeks that followed
Made [G]me know I'd always
love you till I [C]die.

[Verse 6]
[C]For days I tried forgetting you
And [F]fi nally wrote you offers
just like a [C]passing friend
But I woke up this morning
And today I started loving you [G]again.

[Verse 7]
If this [C]letter ever find you
I [F]hope it finds you happy when [C]it find you
I'll address it somewhere Texas
For you [G]talked about some cowboys
that you [C]knew.

[Verse 8]
[C]September in Miami marks
[F]the time and the place
I first laid [C]eyes on you
I was there to spend the winter
Keepin' warm the only way I
[G]knew.

just a memory of mine...)
