I Thought I Never Would Forget Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Em][C][Dsus4][D]

[Verse 1]
[G]I
went back in time today
[Em]A box I thought I'd thrown away
[C]Had fallen off the basement shelf
[Dsus4]I tripped and alm[D]ost

[Verse 2]
hurt myself
[G]Scattered there across the floor
A New [Em]Year's Eve hat [C]from '94
Ticket stubs to Billy Joel
[Dsus4]And pictures from the Sugar Bowl[D]

[Verse 3]
[Bm]Some of these souv[Esus4]enirs I rememb[Am]er
Mostly [Dsus4]I don't[D]
[Bm]It's funny how time[Esus4]
reduces a keep[Am]sake
To a [Dsus4]footnote
[D]

[Verse 4]
[C]
The where's and the [G]whens
That meant so much [D]then
Have gracefully [G]moved [C]along
My [G]memory had mercy on
[Em]me and l[D]et me go o[C]n[G]
[Am]Considering ever[G]ything you meant[C]
I thought I [D]never would for[C]get

[Verse 5]
[G]Here's us dancing on your birthday
Ju[Em]ly 2[C]9th or 28th
The song was 'Always
[Dsus4]and Forever'
I'm not [D]sure but I remember

[Verse 6]
[G]That's the night we first made love
The pas[Em]sion captured both of us
[C]It held us then it set us free
This [Dsus4]is all that's left o[D]f you and me

[Verse 7]
[Bm]A cardboard treasure c[Esus4]hest
[E]With a dia[Am]ry of two lov[Dsus4]er s[D]
[Bm]Now it's a dusty[Esus4] old box[E]
[Am]No different from [Dsus4]the others
[D]

[Verse 8]
[C]
The where's and the [G]whens
That meant so much [D]then
Have gracefully [C]moved [G]along[C]
My [G]memory had mercy on
[Em]me and l[D]et me go[C] o[G]n
[Am]Considering ever[G]ything you meant[C]
I thought I [D]never would for
[C]get

[Interlude 1]
[C][G][Am][G][Dsus4][D][C]

[Verse 9]
[C]My [G]memory had mercy on
[Em]me and l[D]et me go[C] o[G]n
[Am]Considering ever[G]ything you meant[C]
I thought I [Dsus4]never would for[D]get[C]
