[Verse 1]
[C]Jami was a [D]good [Em]friend
[C]Back when we were [D]kids
and [Em]my father got sick
We would [C]hang out on [D]the weekend[Em]s
In her [C]house by the [D]cathedral
where [Em]all the good people
Got [C]dressed up on [D]a Sunday[Em]
To [C]go and spill [D]their secrets no
mat[Em]ter who the preacher was
We [C]used to find that [D]funny[Em]
But it's [C]easy when you're young
not to [D]realize that you're lucky

[Verse 2]
[Em]When the l[C]ast of your
[D]friends are [Em]gone
You learn a [C]whole lot about
[D]hanging [Em]on and on
But if you [C]crash [D]and nobody [Em]sees
Just re[C]member there will
[D]always [Em]be[C]
A room for [D]you in my house in

[Verse 3]
[C]Aaron was a [D]good [Em]friend
[C]We were in our twen[D]ties,
we [Em]drove across the country
Then [C]moved into [D]the canyon[Em]
And he [C]looked after [D]the business
[Em]the year that I got sick
Then [C]we went [D]off in dif[Em]ferent directions
[C]Kept in [D]touch but [Em]it never was the same
[G]I n[C]ever got to tha[D]nk him[Em]
But I wro[C]te it in a letter
[D]I'm sure I'll send [Em]it someday
When the [C]last of your

[Verse 4]
[D]friends are [Em]gone
You learn a [C]whole lot about
[D]hanging [Em]on and on
But if [C]you crash and [D]nobody [Em]sees
Just re[C]member there will
[D]always [Em]be[C]
A room for [D]you in my house in [C]the trees,
[D]tre[Em]es

[Verse 5]
[Bm]
I am [G]a lucky[C] man
I have been [Am]so many pl[Em]aces
When I [Am]dream it seems I'm [Em]chasing
A [C]bittersweet, bittersweet,
[D]bittersweet memory
