Chris knight - leaving souvenirs (trailer tapes)
 
Capo: ii
Some people say chris is tuned in 435 hz pitch instead of the standard 440 hz
- that might be the reason why it sounds a little off when it's played in 440 hz pitch.
 
G Em C
Had a '69 impala bought it from my dad
G Em C
Gave him 3oo dollars he gave me all it had

After all that old car went through
G D C
You'd think id still have you
 
G Em C
It always brought us home alright, it knew every curve in the road

Gave us shelter from the night when we had no gas to go
G Em C
We always found plenty to do
G D C
When you loved me and i loved you
 
[Refrão] Em C
The other day i seen that car in a heap of rust by the old mans barn
G D
I hadn't thought of it in years
Em C
But you still cross my mind and all we left behind
G D C
When we were leavin souvenirs
 
G Em C
Now the car wont start and i had to pry the door
G Em C
Among the salvage parts up on the dash board
G Em C
There was a red ribbon from your hair
G D C
And i remember the night that you put it there

Em C
The other day i seen that car in a heap of rust by the old mans barn
G D

Em C
But you still cross my mind and all we left behind

When we were leavin souvenirs
G D C
When we were leavin souvenirs
