C5
There are notes that ring eternal

          A5
there are songs that will remain

F5
momma sang a song of love

                     G5
I've carried all my days


      C5
And I find my own voice singin'

      A5
in a voice that I once heard

  F5
I recognize the feelings

   G5             C5
I recognize the words

Chorus
------

Em--->A5    E5             A5  
  oh,      here it comes again              

Em---->A5    F5               G5
  oh,      some things never end



C5
there are things that aren't forgotten

          A5
there are things that still remain

F5
events of long ago, now

G5              C5
somehow form a chain

C5
grandpa cracked a whip down

     A5
it's stung a long, long time

F5
daddy picked that whip up

                     G5                 
cracked that back of mine


     C5
in a moment high confusion

    A5
has got a grip on me

F5
i wonder how that whip now

G5                  C5
is in the hand i see

CHORUS

there are scars that aren't forgotten
there are scars that still remain
events of long ago now 
somehow form a chain

can you find it in the mirror?
can you find it in your heart?
look into tomorrow
do you stop before you start?

do you find your own voice ringin'
in a voice that you once heard?
do you recognize the feelings?
do you recognize the words?

oh, here it comes again
oh, some things never end

there are things that aren't forgotten
there are things that will remain
events of long ago
somehow form a chain
