        G                                 D

  I was going through the closet, back in my old home

           C                       D

  Found my lettermans jacket, so I slipped it on

  G                         D

  Deep in the pocket, still folded up tight

          C                    D

  Was the letter you wrote, to tell me goodbye

      G                  D

  The minute I saw it, I just had to smile

     C                            D

  It smelled like old leather, as smooth as a child

    G                       D 

  I took a deep breath, and put it away

            C                               D

  There was no need to read it, I knew just what it would say

  

  [Chorus:]

  G

  I know the words by heart

         D

  I know every line

       C

  >From this ain't easy

            D

  To you'll get along just fine

  G                         D

  I know every comma, every question mark

       C

  No I don't have to look

                   D  G

  I know the words by heart

  

  [End Chorus]

  

  G                       D 

  Scenes like old movies, flash through my head

      C                    D

  The homecoming game, the night on my bed

      G                           D

  The words that you wrote, still cut me in two

          C                         D

  How you said you still cared, but that we were through

  

  [Repeat Chorus]

  

  [Bridge]

  

  Em                   C

  Ain't it funny how a memory

  G                       D

  Can play tricks on your mind

          Em                       C

  I don't remember a thing from my classes

            G         C     D

  But I can quote you every line

  

  [End bridge]

  

    G                       D

  I took off my jacket, and put it away

            C                          D

  With your note in the pocket, like I found it that day

  G                      D 

  Poured me a beer, then pictured your face

              C                            D 

  And drank a silent toast, to things that time can't erase

  

  [Repeat Chorus X2]
