I Remember Me

C         F             C
He almost walked into a wall
C        F                  C
Oh, man, she was a sight to see
C         Am    F          C
And at the party down the hall
C                     F                    C
He said, "you are the highest apple in the tree"

C                      F               C
Out the window, in the harbor he saw a little ship
C                      F               C
The moon was worn just slightly on the right
C             Am            F               C
And they slow danced so the needle wouldn't skip
C         F                    C
Until the room was filled with light

[Chorus 1]
        F
And I remember you
        C
And I remember me
    E
The sunshine walking inside you
        Am
And the man you could see in me
       F
So I remember me
        C
And I remember you
        E
So many beautiful days in a row now
        Am
And the nights were perfect, too

[Verse 2]
C                   F                   C
Hand in hand down a waterslide in Chattanooga
C            F                   C
They did not hide from love, you see
C          Am               F C
A winter's plane flight to Aruba
C                F                C
Where he threw a boombox into the sea
C                         F                        C
One day they were cutting flowers for something to do
C                  F                      C
On the bank of the road 'neath the cotton woods
C                Am                  F     C
And he turned to her to ask if she'd marry him
C              F                      C
When a runaway truck hit him where he stood

[Chorus 2]
       F
So I remember you
        C
And I remember you
        E
And I remember you-hoo-hoo
            Am
Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo Doo
        F
And I remember me
        C
And I remember me
  E
A blackhawk nailed to the sky
        Am
And the tape is from the trees

[Verse 3]
C         F                       C
Everybody said she needed to move on
C                   F                     C
That he was all but lost, so deep was his coma
C                    Am                       F    C
When he finally came to the girl he loved was long gone
C               F                      C
She'd married a banker and gone to Oklahoma
C                  F                            C
He bought a little land with the money from the settlement
C                   F                           C
And even bought the truck that had hit him that day
C              Am             F         C
He touched the part where the metal was bent
C               F                           C
And if you were there you wouldn't hear him say

[Chorus 3]
    F
I remember her
        C
And I remember him
    F
I remember them
    C
I remember then
           F
I'm just remembering
           C
I'm just remembering
       F
Just remembering
           C
I'm just remembering
