*if you can get the above, you can surely make up a similar picking
pattern for the C and Em progressions which are next.
VERSE 1:
LAsus2 SOL
I was loud and a little sad.
RE/REsus2 RE/REsus4
She was visiting from Atlanta, Georgia.
LAsus2 SOL
She had come to spend the summer with her dad.
RE/REsus2 RE/REsus4
I thought she was very pretty.
DO MIm
We would kiss and hold hands
DO MIm
Every night by the football field.
DO MIm
Her body was tan
RE/REsus2
From the afternoons by the public swimming pool.
CHORUS: (strum these chords)
LAsus2 SOL
Sweet evening breeze
LAsus2 SOL
Blows around my thoughts and memories.
LAsus2
As I lie here today
SOL
And drink my tea,
RE REsus4 RE
I can still see
LAsus2 / SOL / LAsus2 / SOL / LAsus2 / SOL / LAsus2 / SOL
Sweet evening breeze.
VERSE 2:
LAsus2 SOL
I saw her in a coffee shop
RE/REsus2 RE/REsus4
In a big hotel down in Austin, Texas.
LAsus2 SOL
She had cut her long hair off
RE/REsus2
And replaced it with
SOL RE SOL RE
Blue eyes of sad - ness.
DO MIm
Still acted like we were kids
C *Fill*
And she told me that she had to marry
DO MIm
And she asked me if I did
RE/REsus2
Still remember.
CHORUS
VERSE 3:
LAsus2 SOL
How redundant the future can be.
RE/REsus2 RE/REsus4
These days of old are very, very
LAsus2 SOL
Ridiculous for me to see
RE/REsus2 SOL RE SOL RE
When I think about the real gone stor - ies
DO MIm
And how time holds the winning hand.
C *Fill*
I can tell by the lines on our faces
DO MIm
And the young can't understand
RE/REsus2
That they look at me
When they look at themselves.
