A Good Memory

	  		

Verse 1:
          E                A 
You're a flower drawn in sidewalk chalk 
  E                            B 
Beautiful but she won't stick around for long 
   A                  B        A         E      A 
You'll be gone from here in a matter of hours 
           C#m                      A      B    E    A 
After the first summer rain washes all of you away 
And every single trace of your 
      E         A 
Late night, drunk phone call 
    E                    B 
Tellin' me you love me after all 
         A                          B            A            E      A 
I still taste the red wine on your lips on the side of the phone 
         C#m              A       B          E 
But somehow we lose connection and then you're gone 



          B 
If I'd a held on a little longer 
       A 
Loved you a little stronger 
         E                                 A 
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me 
         B               A 
Showed up uninvited to be right by your side now, darlin' 
        E                  B       E 
Would we be more than a good memory 

 
Verse 2:
         E                A 
You're a southern livin' magazine 
   E           B 
So elegant and pristine 
       A                B      A      E         A 
Well, you smell like a rich woman's cologne 
       C#m                  A      B             E 
Soon someone's bound to pick you up and take you home 
 

          B 
If I'd a held on a little longer 
       A 
Loved you a little stronger 
         E                                 A 
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me 
         B               A 
Showed up uninvited to be right by your side now, darlin' 
        E                  B       E 
Would we be more than a good memory 
          B 
If I'd a held on a little longer 
        A 
Loved you a little stronger 
         E                                 A 
Would you still be ridin' shotgun next to me 
         B                A 
Showed up uninvited to your hill countryside apartment 
        E                   B       E 
Would we be more than a good memory 
   B          E 
A good memory
