This is a duet between Lucy Hale and Joe Nichols.
Capo on 3
If you find the F really difficult to do like I do here's one slightly different way to
play it which is much easier, especially when switching between C and F: 0--3--3--2--1--0
(verse 1)
Lucy:
F C G C
If I close my eyes, and imagine you are here.
F C A7 G
It'll last for awhile, before you disappear
F C G C
So I close my eyes, cause the only thing I fear
F C G
Is waking up one day, forgetting you were ever here
(Chorus 1)
Joe:
F C
Darling, It's you I remember with your Red Dress on,
G C
Dancing in the moonlight till the break of dawn.
F C G
It's you I remember dancing with your Red Dress on
Lucy:
F C
And Baby it's you I remember when I hear that song,
G C
Singing out the Chorus till your voice was gone
F C G
It's you I remember every time I hear that song
(verse 2)
Joe:
F C G C
Not a day goes by,without thinking that I see,
F C A7 G
Your face in the crowd, turning away from me
F C G C
So the days go by, like a re-occurring dream
F C G
Where every night ends with the same old memory
(Chorus 2)

And Baby it's you I remember when I hear that song,

(Bridge)
Joe:
C G
I don't know the game we're playing,
C G
You and I were on to something F
F C C G
How did we fall apart,without asking ourselves why?

Looking back I can't help thinking
C G
If somehow I had just stopped running
F C C G
I would have held you close, and never said goodbye.
(Chorus 3)
