Remember me, [Am] oh, remember me
Remember [B] of [Em] your life
Well, when I was a young man and drove my mother wild
Well, I met a girl [D] out in the wood and she [Em] said,
Child, look deep into my green eyes and at my auburn hair
And tell me, have you ever seen [Am] a maiden quite [Em] so fair?
Remember me, oh, [Am] remember for the rest of [Em] your life
[Fm] Remember
Well, her eyes were green like [A#m] glassy pools a-lookin' [Fm] right at me
And her hair was [D#] red and blown with leaves just like [Fm] an autumn tree
She raised her tiny hands and gave a little turn
Then swayed in the breeze [A#m] just like a graceful [Fm] burn
Remember me, oh, [Fm] [A#m] remember for the rest of [Fm] your life [F#m] Remember
Well, I swore when she [Bm] vanished that when I [F#m] was full grown
That I would have [E] a girl like her to be [F#m] my very own
Now I am a man [Bm] and I'd marry if [F#m] I could
But I'll never have the memory [Bm] of the girl out in [F#m] the wood
Remember
[F#] [F#m] Remember me, [Bm] oh, remember for the rest [F#m] of your life
Remember
[B] [F#]
