  • Artist:

Intro is something like  C5  G5  F5  G5  C5

C5                  G5
I remember holdin' on to you
A5                F5               C5
All them long and lonely nights I put you through
C5                             G5
Somewhere in there I'm sure I made you cry
      F5              G5 ( G5 )          C5    
But I can't remember if we said goodbye


Bridge:
      F5                                     C5
But I recall all of them nights down in Mexico
                G5            G5
One place I may never go
G5           C5       G5 ( G5 )
In my life again

      C5                           G5
Was I just off somewhere just too high
     F5              G5               C5  
But I can't remember if we said goodbye


I only miss you every now and then
Like a soft breeze blowin up from the Caribbean
Most Novembers I break down and cry
But I can't remember if we said goodbye

Repeat bridge

Coda:
      F5              G5               A5
But I can't remember if we said goodbye
F5          
Goodbye
C5
Goodbye

*Note  (G7) means maybe throw in a dominant seventh
        the C and G chords use sus 4's etc off and on.

You can incorporate the riff that runs throughout the song into
your fingerpicking by playing it on the 4th (D) and 5th (A)
strings, effectively playing C4's, G6/B's, G7/B's etc.
