I Thought I Never Would Forget

INtro - A - F#m - D - Esus - E



(verse 1)
A                           F#m
I went back in time today a box I 
thought,

I'd thrown away,
D
Had fallen off the basement shelf,
E
I tripped and almost hurt myself,
A
Scattered there across the floor,
  F#m
A New Year's Eve hat from '94,
D                          Esus
Ticket stubs to Billy Joel, and 
pictures,
         E
From the Sugar Bowl,


(bridge)
C#m              F#m            D
Some of these souvenirs I remember,
          Esus-E
Mostly I don't,
C#m            F#m         
It's funny how time reduces a 
      D
keepsake,
         Esus - E
To a footnote,

D                   A            
The wheres and the whens that 
            E
meant so much then,
                  A         G
Have gracefully moved along,
D      A              F#m      
My memory had mercy on me and 
A        D - A - Bm
let me go on,
           A                D
Considering everything you meant I 
thought,
    E            D
I never would forget,

(verse 2)
Here's us dancing on your birthday,
July 29th or 28th,
The song was "Always and Forever,
I'm not sure but I remember,
That's the night we first made love,
The passion captured both of us,
It held us, then it set us free,
This is all that's left of you and 
me,

(bridge)
A cardboard treasure chest with a 
diary,
Of two lovers,
Now it's a dusty old box no 
different,
From the others,
