[C] He almost walked into a wall.
Oh man, she was a sight to see.
And at [Am] the [F] party down the [C] hall,
He said, you are the highest apple in the tree.
Out the window in the harbor he saw a little ship.
The moon was worn just slightly on the right.
And they slow [Am] danced [F] so the needle wouldn't [C] skip
Until [F] the room [C] was filled with light.
And I [F] remember you, and [C] I remember me.
[E] The sunshine walking inside you,
[Am] And the man you could see in me.
So I [F]
remember me, [C] and I remember you.
[G] So many [E]
beautiful days in a row now,
And [Am] the nights were perfect too.
[C]
Hand in hand down a water slide in Chattanooga,
They did [F] not hide [C] from love, you see.
A winter's [F] plane flight to [C] Aruba,
Where he threw a boombox into the sea.
One day they were cutting [F] flowers for something [C] to do
On the bank of the road, beneath the cottonwoods.
And he turned to [Am] her to ask [F] if she'd marry [C] him.
When a [F] runaway truck [C] hit him where he stood.
[F] So I remember you, [C] and I remember you.
[E] And I remember you, doo doo [Am] doo doo doo doo doo doo.
And [F] I remember me, [C] and I remember me.
[E] A black hawk nailed to the sky,
And [Am] the tape hissed from the trees.
[C]
Everybody [Am] said she needed [C] to move on,
That he [F] was all but lost, so deep [C] was his coma.
And when he finally [Am] came to, the girl he loved [F] was long [C] gone.
She'd married a [F] banker down to [C] Oklahoma.
He bought a [F] little land with the money [C] from the settlement,
And even [F] bought the truck that had [C] hit him that day.
He touched the part where the metal was bent,
And if you were [F] there you [C] wouldn't hear him say,
I [F]
remember her, and [C] I remember him.
[F] I remember them, [C] I remember them.
I'm just [F] remembering, [C] I'm just remembering,
[F] Just remembering, [C] I'm just remembering.
Oh man, she was a sight to see.
And at [Am] the [F] party down the [C] hall,
He said, you are the highest apple in the tree.
Out the window in the harbor he saw a little ship.
The moon was worn just slightly on the right.
And they slow [Am] danced [F] so the needle wouldn't [C] skip
Until [F] the room [C] was filled with light.
