Intro:   D
         G C G C Eb F

  G
I stumbled out of bed

     Em
I got ready for the struggle

  G
I smoked a cigarette

     Em               D
And I tightened up my gut

  C                  Am
I said this can't be me

B          F         Em
Must be my double


G              C               G
And I can't forget (I can't forget)

               C               Eb
And I can't forget (I can't forget)

                     F              G
I can't forget but I don't remember what


G C G C Eb F G


    G
I'm burning up the road

   Em
I'm heading down to Phoenix

  G
I got this old address

   Em             D
Of someone that I knew

       C                 Am
It was high and fine and free

        B           F          Em
Ah, you should have seen us


G              C               G
And I can't forget (I can't forget)

               C               Eb
And I can't forget (I can't forget)

                     F              G
I can't forget but I don't remember who


        B
I'll be there today

       Em             B
With a big bouquet of cactus

  F                 Em            D
I got this rig that runs, runs on memories

      G                 C
And I promise, cross my heart,

              G          C
They'll never catch us

    Eb                                D
But if they do, just tell them it was me


  G
I loved you all my life

          Em
And that's how I want to end it

G
The summer's almost gone

    Em              D
The winter's tuning up

    C
The summer's gone

      Am       B     F      Em
But a lot goes on forever

G              C               G
And I can't forget (I can't forget)

           C               Eb
I can't forget (I can't forget)

                     F              G
I can't forget but I don't remember what
