Intro: G, D/F, Em, D, Cadd9
           G
I found a box of memories,
Read a letter,
           D/F
Dropped a tear where you signed your name,
                 Em
And turning the page,
              D                 Cadd9
Smearing the ink into "Love Always."
          G
Girl, I always start this way a
                          D/F
End then I end up in a bottle screaming out your name,
               Em            D                      Cadd9
Punching the walls, carrying on like I've gone insane,
Bm
And in the mirror,
                                      Em
I can see the man who just shook his head with no remorse,
Bm
Watching an angel cry her tears,
                   Em                          D
Stepping over my beers as you walked out the door.
                G
And there ain't nothing like a memory,
                     Em
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane.
        Cadd9                             D/F
How can love like that just up and walk away?
Killing me baby.
             G
It's got me pouring up another drink,
                      Em                      
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train,
        Cadd9                           D/F
With my back against the wall or on my knees,
                        D                       G    D    Cadd9
When the worst of your memory gets the best of me.
G                                        E/F
Well, I remember it all too well, riding 441 down to Milledgeville,
              Em                              Cadd9       
Crossing the Bridge as the sun set on Lake Sinclair.
            G
I couldn't wait to see you smile,
                     E/F                                       Em
But all I saw were tears in your pretty eyes and that said it all,
                          Cadd9
It was all downhill from there.
Bm                                       Em
And I remember you saying, "Baby, please don't give up on me."
Bm                                     Em                  D
Oh my baby, this stubborn man is gonna lie in the bed he made.
                G
'Cause there ain't nothing like a memory,
                    Em
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane.
        Cadd9                             D/F
How can love like that just up and walk away?
Killing me baby.
             G
It's got me pouring up another drink,
                      Em                      
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train,
        Cadd9                            Em
With my back against the wall or on my knees,
                         D               G   Em          Cadd9    D
When the worst of your memory gets the best,     the best of me.
                     G
Baby, there ain't nothing like a memory,
                      Em
When it's coming on strong like a hurricane.
        Cadd9                            D/F
How can love like that just up and walk away?
Your killing me baby.
          G
Got me pouring up another drink,
                      Em
Bourbon's hitting me hard like a freight train,
        Cadd9                            D/F
With my back against the wall or on my knees,
                          D
When the words to your memory gets the best, the best of me.
G, Cadd9, G, D/F, Cadd9
