this is my “open mic – nite” version . it holds its own and is a lot easier to play!
intro : G power chord , D power chord ( a string 5th fret ) ,
C power chord ( A – 3 ) , B power chord ( A – 2 ) , open a chord .
the strumming is 1 , 1 – 2 for the first 3 chords , for the C power chord ,
strum it 4 more times , then the B and a once .
G D
late at night i close my eyes ,
C B – A
and think how things could have been . . .
G D
and when i look back
C B
i remember some words that you said to me . . .
A
it’s better to have lost at love ,
C D chorus
than never to have loved at – all i won’t for –
G ( same strumming as the intro ) D
get you baby ( i won’t forget you )
A C G
even though i could i won’t forget you babe i won’t
D A C . . . D , C , B , C , A
forget you eventhough i should ,
repeat the previous lyric chord structure with these lyrics :
sometimes in my head i can still see pictures of you ,
and i laugh to myself when i think of all the crazy things
that we used to do .
all those miles come between us , just beween you and me : repeat chorus
the last chorus lines end with : memories slowly fade ,
i won’t for get you babe , i won’t forget you , and all the plans we made .
