I REMEMBER

(Chuck Girard)

Em7                  A9          Em7             A9
I remember what you told me, it wasn't too long ago
Em7                             A9              Em7                 A9
You told me that you knew the answer,But now I wonder if you really know
Em7                         A9                Em7               A9
I see what appears to be a conflict, what you say and what you do
       Em7            A9                    Em7             A9
And I really have to admit it, I don't know how to analyze you

G                                            D/F#
It seems that you never really try to do the best that you can
            G                          D/F#                    Em           
'Cause the things you say are not the things you do just like any other man

Em7                           A9          Em7                   A9
At first you really talked religion, but now that isn't comin' through
    Em7                       A9          
I really had hoped that you really were right
       Em7                          A9
And I watched to see how well you'd do
         Em7                  A9          
But it seems to me now it was just another trip
Em7                   A9
Because I didn't see a lasting change
         Em7                         A9
And the whole thing strikes me as peculiar
Em7                          A9
More than just a little bit strange

G
You never really try to do the best that you can
            D/F#
And that'll never really be enough
         G     
'Cause I saw you back down from what you said you believed
          D/F#
When the goin' got a little rough
     G                 D/F#
It's really too bad, I hoped that you were right
      Em                   D/F#
I was really lookin' for a change
        G                           D/F#
But it seems this trip is just like all the rest
      Em                             E7
And I guess I'll have to pass again
