The Sweetest Thing
Carlene Carter
Album: I Fell In Love

Intro: D#-Bb-F-Bb

Bb                D#     Bb
In the stillness of the dawn 
             D#       F
Our love is dead and gone 
        Bb            D#         Bb         F
The sunrise warms my heart with memories of you 
           D#      Bb    F          Bb
It's the sweetest thing     remembering 

Bb           D#           Bb
There's a picture in the hall 
           D#            F 
That I'm leaving on the wall 
           Bb           D#               Bb           F
There's a look in your eyes that always made me fall apart 
           D#      Bb   F          Bb 
It's the sweetest thing    remembering 

Bb       D#
When I close my eyes to cry 
         Bb
I can't help but feel a smile 
          D#
'Cause I think of you and I forget 
    F
It hurt to say goodbye 

          Bb               D#m
But after all we've been through 
     Gm        Cm-C
It's amazing to me 
      D#       Bb     F         Bb
The sweetest thing's    remembering 
         D#       Bb  F         Bb
Oh the sweetest thing   remembering 

Instrumental: Bb-D#-Bb-D#-F-Bb-D#-Bb-F-D#-Bb-F-Bb
(Note: Same Cord Progression as the first verse)

Bb         D#
We wanted love to last forever 
              Bb
And the good Lord knows we tried 
              D#
But when the rain came pouring down 
          F 
There was no place left to hide 

          Bb               D#m
But after all we've been through 
     Gm        Cm-C
It's amazing to me 
      D#       Bb     F         Bb  
The sweetest thing's    remembering 
         D#       Bb  F         Bb
Oh the sweetest thing   remembering 
          D#       Bb   F        Bb
It's the sweetest thing   remembering
