The Song Remembers When Chords

Lyrics & chords

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

[Verse 1]
I was [G]standing at the counter
I was waiting for the change
When I heard that old familiar music [C]start
It was [G]like a lighted match
had been tossed into my soul
It was like a dam had broken in my [C]heart

[Chorus 1]
After [F]taking every detour
Gettin' lost and losin' track
So that [C]even if I wanted
I could not find my way back
After [F]driving out the memory
Of the way things might have been
[G]Af ter I'd forgotten all about us
The song remembers
[C]whe[F]n

[Verse 2]
We were [G]rolling through the Rocky's
We were up above the clouds
When a station out of
Jackson played [C]that song
And it [G]seemed to fit the moment
And the moment seemed to freeze
When we turned music up and sang a[C]long

[Chorus 2]
And there [F]was a God in Heaven
And the world made perfect sense
We were [C]young and were in love
And we were easy to convince
We were [F]headed straight for Eden
It was just around the bend
And [G]though I have forgotten all about it
The song [C]remembers [C]when

[Bridge 1]
I guess [F]something must have happened
And we must have said good[Am]bye
And my [D]heart must have been broken
Though [G]I can't recall just why
[G]The song remembers

[Interlude 1]
[C](wh[F]en)
[C][F]

[Verse 3]
Well, for [G]all the miles between us
And for all the time that's past
You would think I haven't gotten very [C]far
And I [G]hope my hasty heart
Will forgive me just this once
If I stop to wonder how on [C]earth you are

[Chorus 3]
But that's [F]just a lot of water
Underneath a bridge I burned
And there's [C]no use in backtracking
Around corners I have turned
Still I [F]guess some things we buried
Are just bound to rise again
For [G]even if the whole world has
forgotten
The song [C]remembers when
Yeah, and [G]even if the whole world
has forgotten

[Outro 1]
The song remembers
[C](wh[F]en)
[C][F][G]
[C]
