Memories Of Old Hickory Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Intro 1]
[G][Asus4][A][D]

[Verse 1]
[D]I know that you are near me,
maybe now more so than ever I [A]could find you
I know you're 22 feet tall and you walk
around with angels be[D]side you
And if you passed me on the street you would be
there just like the breeze and then I'll [A]miss ya
But [Em]i know com[A]ing so[E]on I'll se[Em]e you dan
[A]cing on the moon [D]my sweet Miranda

[Verse 2]
We could [D]fly away to Jupiter and spend a couple
years out in the dark[A]ness
Or we could maybe find the ocean where the sands
of desperation never [D]breed
I would stare into your Russian eyes so
easily you captivate my [A]motion
For the [Em]aching in my heart is only con
[A]stant when my mind is in a dream
[D]

[Verse 3]
Cause I can't have you
No, I [A]can't have you
You know [G]I want you
But [Gm]I can[C]not [Gm]have[D]

[Interlude 1]
you
[D][G][F#m][Em][D]

[Verse 4]
[D]Summer comes around again and I
can see you dancing in the tall [A]grass
I remember in old hickory when Madeleine
and Shakey used [D]to chase us
You would take the high road over Casper and I'd see you in [A]the morning,
yes I would
Another [Em]memory I've tried to shake [A]away but
sure enough it's back to haunt [D]me, why...

[Verse 5]
Cause I can't [D]have you
No, I [A]can't have you
You know [G]I want you
But I [Gm]cannot [D]have you

[Interlude 2]
[D][G][F#m][Em][D]

[Verse 6]
[D]I wake up in the clouds again so I
can see Miranda off to col[A]lege
She says to meet me in the garden,
I'll be there to beg your pardon [D]finally
Don't you ever let me go you know I love
you when you sing to me [A]so quiet
If it [Em]were up to me I'd [A]never leave old hickory,
but it's not up [D]to me
If it were [G]up to me I'd never leave old [A]hickory,
but it's just not up to [D]me
