Remembering
Recorded by Jerry Reed
Capo on 1
[Intro]
C C F G F G
C
Every night I go down to this same little joint
G
Fill up my glass till I reach the point, past remembering
Dm
Where the music is loud, the conversation is free
G C
A dance or two with someone to keep me from remembering
C
The fool I've been the hurt I've caused
The good woman that I loved and lost
F Fm
For she's constantly with me in memory
C Dm
I go home but I couldn't sleep
G C
And after hours I'd be walkin' the streets re- membering
Am Dm G
A good woman's love is hard to find
Am Dm F G
And my woman's love was just that kind
C
And I'm the reason that she's gone today
G
I miss her so and the price that I pay is remembering
Dm
I take her to sleep in my dreams every night
G C
Then start all over in the morning light re- membering
C
The way it was when she loved me
Then like a fool how I carelessly
F Fm
Broke her heart, then watched my world fall apart
C Dm
I'd give this world for yesterday
G C
Just to have her love me the way I remember
Dm G C
Just to have her love me the way I remember
