G D C GD x 2
G
I remember the yellow room
A face I've never seen since
CA picture on the far wall
G DMy hands on the bars
G
And I remember asking about ugliness
and I remember the sky was broken
Cand I remember rain
G Don the other side of the road
G
and I remember the colour was wrong
and I remember a dream about darkness
C G Dand I remember the sound of birds
C G D
and I remember careless talk and I remember blood
and I remember an imagined place, running, laughing
and I remember a white cat with no tail
DI remember the letter I gave to her husband
C G Dand I remember a terrible secret
G
and I remember jumping from the 14th step
and I remember pink ribbon in grey hair
C G Dand I remember 7:30 1969
G
and I remember standing in the hall
Dwith strangers
and I remember leaving
Come sail your ships around me and burn your bridges down
we make a little history, baby, every time you come around
Let loose your dogs upon me and let your hair hang down
You are a mystery to me, every time you come around.
Am Em C
Your face has fallen saddened now,
you know that the time is right
C Gfor me to let go your wings **
and you, you must learn to fly
repeat "come sail your ships . . ."
vvvvvvvvvvvvvv
I remember
DI remember
CI remember
leaving
oooh oooh etc.
end on a G
