Behind The Vinyl: "Don't Forget Me (When I'm Gone)" with Glass Tiger chords
Start Jamming...
Here we go.
Wait for the drum fill.
So the first thing that comes to mind for me with this is
[C#m] we wrote this song [D] and
[E] Someday, yeah, same day.
Very [C#m] first day we ever [A] worked with Jim [E] Barnes.
Within 40 minutes of meeting Jim.
Yeah
Took us to the house
[A] Asked us what we, well, [Dm] he picked us up at the [Gm] airport and he said [A] what are you guys listening to these days?
Yeah, and [D] we told him Tears for Fears.
Yeah.
It's one of them.
That's how we [A] get the shuffle.
But we were [D] actually thinking
[G]
[A] Shout.
Yeah, and Everybody Wants to Rule the World.
And he put Everybody Wants to Rule the World and he went, ah, shuffle.
Yeah, and I remember him saying going, [D] we haven't had one of those in a [A] while.
Yeah, it's like it's time for another shuffle.
And so [E] it's like he went down his checklist.
[C#m] You've got, and I think you put [E] it on the greatest hits package, you've got some [C#m] original
[D] [E] writing.
One of the things that Jim [C#] did,
it was [A] cassette tape back in the day, [E] but when you're sitting in a writing situation, in the back room
[A] you just have a live mic in the room [D] and that was normal to the cassette deck so that it would [A] just capture everything that's
going on.
It [D] wasn't anything [E] more than, sometimes [A] you'd be writing a song and you'd take a left turn and an hour [D] later you go,
you know,
[A] what we were doing an hour ago was way cooler.
[B] So then you'd be able to go back to the cassette tape, hit rewind, go an hour ago
we were doing this and we were we were [E] grooving on it.
Now we've lost [B] the plot.
So Jim [D] used to just capture the whole [F#] day and we would just put another blank in, another blank in.
[F#m] So at the end of the [E] session, me being the pack rat,
I put them all in my pocket of course and then [B] transferred them all.
So you hear the [F] actual writing
as
it happened in real time.
I've condensed it, so to like two minutes.
People have asked me did I know it was a hit and
of course you're not really [A#] sure what a hit is, but [C] I always remember [G] a listening session, Derek Sutton [C] was with us
and we [A] were in the studio in Vancouver.
I think it was just you and I
[G] representing the [A] band.
But we did a [D] playback and I [G] heard
[A] the harmony that I did that sounded very much like the Everly Brothers.
I remember that, yeah.
[D] That was a moment [E] when I went
Derek [A] reacted to that.
Yeah, [E]
[A] that's the high harmony on it.
[E]
[B] And
that Everly Brothers thing for [E] me just sort of said, [B] this is special.
[D] I remember turning to balance because [F#] you know we have had no concept of [C#] first album,
[E] never, don't know what a hit is and
watching Jim's face [B] because he's had all these [F] mega hits.
I remember trying to read his face whether it was good or not and I [Dm] remember sitting in the car driving across,
I think it was [F] Langley, and he's like snapping his fingers as he's driving.
I said Jim,
[C] is it good?
He goes, [G] yeah, it's good.
Everybody always wants to make a [C] big deal out of Ryan Adams singing [A] on it thinking it was some big
industry [D] thing.
Yeah.
When it was actually just a couple of [A] drunk guys over Heineken's, right?
[B] Brian kept tabs on
He was a journalist or something, right?
Yeah, he kept tabs on Jim, what was going on, how you doing?
[F#] And he showed up at the studio that night because he was into the Junos.
[D] Jim [E] maybe contrived [B] it, I don't know, but Ryan and I studied [A] about four or five [E] Heineken's, probably you.
And then Jim just [F] quietly said,
what are you guys going to sing [F] a couple of songs together?
Of course, that loosened Brian up and I was like, yeah, come on.
[A#] And you [F] know the [A#] young boy from Newmarket that played him in the [C] video?
He got laid because of that.
[G]
[C] [G] No, but I met him years ago, he's all grown up with that, right?
He's like famous over that, right?
Because he sang the Brian Adams part.
[D]
[F] But anyway, you know, I think we're all disappointed
it never went to number one in America [C] because we know it should have and we know the reasons why [A#] it [F] didn't.
But just a Bob Lefsetz called that classic pop hat.
Yeah, we use that.
Nice compliment from him.
Thanks, Bob.
[D] Played it for probably
10 years [A] before we recorded it.
We actually [D] were on our [A] fourth album and
we were one song [N] short.
