Текст песни Jake Etheridge — The Persistence Of Memory + аккорды для гитары
Вступление
[Intro]
E
[Verse 1]
C#m A
I remember driving, and the smell of rain
E B
Your hand was out the window flying like a plane
C#m A
I remember smiling and staring at your face
Like it could disappear if I blinked or looked away
A
Old hickory in your sad dress
E
Won't let me go just yet
[Verse 2]
C#m A
Well I remember sitting on your folks' pull out couch
E B
Kept saying it was cold, I was staring at your mouth
C#m A
But the more I read by memory, the less I pay it mind
E A
Just a story that we tell ourselves, almost a lullaby
A
But your eyes and the TV glow
E
They still won't let me go
[Bridge]
A E B C#m A
Oh I know we had our reasons why
A E B E A
But I can not hold them in my mind
A E B C#m B A
I know we had our reasons why, reasons why
B
But instead I...
[Verse 3]
C#m A
I remember watching you across the room
E B
Yeah I knew all your friends but I did not know you
C#m A
Then when you said your name, I almost felt sick
E B
The whole world spun around, I loved you so quick
A
You laughed and turned your head
E
I can't get free of it
[Outro]
A E B C#m A
Oh I know we had our reasons why
A E B E A
And I know we had some real bad times
A E B C#m B A
But I cannot hold them in my mind, in my mind
