I Remember Everything chords by John Prine

Tuning: Standard (E A D G B E)

Intro:
G

Verse 1:
G
I’ve been down this road before
      Am
I remember every tree
   D
Every single blade of grass
        G
Holds a special place for me

And I remember every town
     Am
And every hotel room
     D
And every song I ever sang
      G
On a guitar out of tune

Verse 2:
G     C
I remember everything
         G
Things I can’t forget
            Am
The way you turned and smiled on me
              D
On the night that we first met
        C
And I remember every night
          G
Your ocean eyes of blue
           D
How I miss you in the morning light
      G
Like roses miss the dew

Instrumental:
G C G D G

Verse 3:
G
I’ve been down this road before
        Am
Alone as I can be
        D
Careful not to let my past
         G
Go sneaking up on me

Got no future in my happiness
            Am
Though regrets are very few
          D
Sometimes a little tenderness
             G
Was the best that I could do

Verse 4:
G     C
I remember everything
         G
Things I can’t forget
        Am
Swimming pools of butterflies
              D
That slipped right through the net
        C
And I remember every night
          G
Your ocean eyes of blue
               D
How I miss you in the morning light
      G
Like roses miss the dew

Reprise:
G       D
How I miss you in the morning light
      G
Like roses miss the dew
