(Capo on 3)
Intro.: (G) x 4 bars
(G)Drove down to the old place a couple a days ago
Where I grew up riding next to you, learning (C)everything I know
I (G)noticed just how green things were when I pulled through the gate
Like the greener pastures up there where we'll (C)meet again someday
Wish (Em)I'd have thought to (D)slip a phone in the (C)pocket of your suit
When the (Em)good Lord called you (D)home on that (C)sunny day in June
(Chorus)
Then (G)I could send a picture of (C)all the things you touched
To think a (G)man who led such a simple life could (D)leave behind so much
It's (Em)just a lot of little things but they (A7)mean the world to me
Every-(Am)where I look there's (G/B)one more memo-(C)-ry
There's a (Am)little bit of you in (D)everything I (G) see |(G) |
(G)Seems to rain now all the time, hadn't seen this much in years
Didn't take you long to send back home some (C)answers to our prayers
A (G)lot of things are different now but so much is still the same
And I accidentally dial your number (C)almost every day
Wish (Em)I'd have thought to (D)slip a phone in the (C)pocket of your suit
When the (Em)good Lord called you (D)home on that (C)sunny day in June
(Chorus)
Then (G)I could send a picture of (C)all the things you touched
To think a (G)man who led such a simple life could (D)leave behind so much
It's (Em)just a lot of little things but they (A7)mean the world to me
Every-(Am)where I look there's (G/B)one more memo-(C)-ry
There's a (Am)little bit of you in (D)everything I (G) see
(Bridge)
If (Em)somehow you could find that cloud with (D)my stuff locked away
Dust it (C)off and you could see the things I (D)send you everyday
(Chorus)
Yeah, (G)I could send a picture of your great (C)grandson growing up
Tell you (G)one more time I love you and that (D)I miss you so much
(Em)Sometimes it's the little things that (A7)really get to me
Every-(Am)where I look there's (G/B)one more memo-(C)-ry
There's a (Am)little bit of you in (D)everything I (G) see
(Tag)
Every-(Am)where I look there's (G/B)one more memo-(C)-ry
There's a (Am)little bit of you in (D)everything I (G) see |(G) -----
