[B] [E] [A]
[B] I was going through the closet [C#m] back in my old [A] home
Found my letterman's [B] jacket so I slipped it home
[A] Deep in the pocket, still folded up tight
Was the letter you [E] wrote to tell me goodbye
[B] The minute I saw it I just had to smile
[F#] It smelled like old leather, [B] as smooth as a child
[G#m] I took a deep breath [C#m] then put it away
[A] There was no need to read, I [B] knew just what you'd say
I [E] know the words by heart, [B] I know [F#m] it's
From this ain't easy, [A] do you get [B] along just fine
[E] I know every [B] comma, every question mark
No [F#m] I don't have to look, I [A] know the words [E] by heart
[B] Scenes like home [C#] movies flash through my [A] head
The homecoming game, [B] the night on my bed
The words that you wrote [C#m] are still coming to
[A] How you said you'd stay here, [B] but that we were through
I [E] know the words by heart, I [B] know every [F#m] line
From this ain't easy, [A] do you get along [B] just fine
I [E] know every comma, [B] every question mark
[F#] No I don't have [F#m] to look, I [A] know the words [E] by heart
[C#m] Ain't it [B] funny how a memory
[G#m] Can play tricks on [F#] your mind
[C#m] I don't remember a thing from my [B] classes
But I [F#m] taught you [A] every line
[B]
I took off my jacket [C#] and put it [E] away
With your note in your pocket, [B] like I found it that day
Poured me a beer, [C#m] then pictured your face
[D] And drank a silent toast to [E] things that time can erase
I [A] know the words [D] by heart, [E] I know every line
[B] From this ain't easy, [D] do you get [E] along just fine
[A] I know every comma, [E] every question [B] mark
