The Way I Remember It
CAPO 1
INTRO: C
C
Indian Summer, both of us laughin''
C
Hackberry trees and fireflies flashin''
F
So many holes in the soles of our shoes
G
You don''t choose life, life chooses you
Floatin'' on a raft we built from scrapwood
Mosquito bit scratchin'' felt so good
And I''d never seen eyes your color of blue
You don''t choose love, love chooses you
CHORUS:
F F/C F/A F/G
From here lookin'' back, twenty years gone by
C
Life slipped by life a gulf shore high tide
G
And now love''s more like a thorn in my side
C C/B C/G
Than the wonderland it used to be
F F/C F/A F//G
I guess that''s why these memories shine like
C F
Sixteenth birthday cake candlelights
C
And I know it wasn''t that perfect
G C
But that''s the way I like to remember it
INTRO
Big green John Deere forty-eight-forty
Turnin'' dirt for most of the morning
Radio givin'' severe weather warnings
You don''t choose fate, fate chooses you
I got to your house as the black skies opened
We were all alone, thunder was rollin''
As west texas flatland turned into ocean
That was the end of our innocence moment
CHORUS (end on F)
SOLO: F C G C C/G C/F#
BRIDGE:
E F
And I''ve learned most of the sad times, the break downs
C
The broken parts fade away
D7 F Dm
I keep all of the highlights close to my heart
G
And I need them everyday
CHORUS
G C
Yeah that''s the way I like to remember it
