Full Song
Verse 1
GCG
I remember the days when the sun would stay
DGC
Out past nine o'clock at night
GCG
And I remember the sound of the old screen door
DGC
Slammin’ in the summertime
GCG
And I remember the way that the old folks talked
DGC
About the way things were
GCG
And I remember the way that the rain would fall
DGCG
On a tin roof made of steel
Chorus
CG
And no one noticed when you stopped callin’
DGC
No one noticed when you started fallin’ apart
GD
And no one noticed you were drownin’
CG
‘Cause you’d been gone so long from their hearts
Verse 2
GCG
I remember the way that the old truck smelled
DGC
Like a fresh cut field of hay
GCG
And I remember the sound of the crickets chirpin’
DGC
Everything was okay
GCG
And I remember the way that the moon would shine
DGC
Through the window by my bed
GCG
And I remember the way that you used to smile
DGCG
Before the light inside went dead
Chorus
CG
And no one noticed when you stopped callin’
DGC
No one noticed when you started fallin’ apart
GD
And no one noticed you were drownin’
CG
‘Cause you’d been gone so long from their hearts
Bridge
CG
And the days go by like ghosts in the night
DG
And the memories fade in the mornin’ light
CGD
And the world keeps turnin’, never askin’ why
GCG
You just learned to live with a hole inside
Verse 3
GCG
Now I sit on this porch and I watch the cars
DGC
Fly by on the interstate
GCG
And I wonder if anyone sees me here
DGC
Or if it’s just all too late
GCG
’Cause the silence is a sound that I’ve come to know
DGC
Like the back of my own two hands
GCG
And the emptiness is a friend that I never chose
DGCG
But it understands, it understands
Chorus
CG
And no one noticed when I stopped callin’
DGC
No one noticed when I started fallin’ apart
GD
And no one noticed I was drownin’
CG
‘Cause I’d been gone so long from their hearts
CG
Yeah, I’d been gone so long from their hearts
Practice tip: Focus on the steady, even strum and let the lyrics carry the emotion; the chord changes are slow and deliberate, giving you plenty of time to move between G, C, and D.
