INTRO x4
C G A F

VERSE
F C
Some mornings I pray for evening
G F
For the day to be done
F C
Some summer days I hide away
G F
And pray for rain to come
F C
It turns out hell will not be found
G F
Within the fires below
F C
But in making do and muddling through
G F A G G
When you've nowhere else to go

CHORUS
F C G
But then I remember you
F C G
And the way you shine like truth in all you do
F C G
And if you remembered me
F C G
You could save me from the way I tend to be

INTRO x2
C G A F

VERSE (same as verse 1)
Some days I wake up dazed my dear
And I don't know where I am
I've been running now so long I'm scared
I've forgotten how to stand
I stand alone in airport bars
And gather thoughts to think
That if all I had was one long road
It could drive a man to drink

CHORUS
But then I remember you
And the way you shine like truth in all you do
And if you remembered me
You could save me from the way I tend to be

BRIDGE play muted and fast
Am7 G/B C F G Am7 G/B
Because I've said I love you so many times that the words kinda die in my
C
Mouth.
Am7 G/B C F G Am7 G/B
And I meant it each time with each beautiful woman but somehow it never
C
Works out
Am7 G/B C F G Am7 G/B
You stood apart in my calloused heart and you taught me and here's what I
C
Learned:
Am7 C F G Am7 G/B
That love is about the all the changes you make and not just three small
C
words.

CHORUS
And then I catch myself
Catching your scent on someone else
In a crowded space
And it takes me somewhere I cannot quite place

But then I remember you
And the way you shine like truth in all you do
And if you remembered me
You could save me from the way I tend to be
