Forget Me by Chris Trapper (who is hugely underrated!)
Tabbed by Ben Jackson
I'm not 100% positive that the chorus is right but it sounds pretty close to me. Song is
A major. Strumming is pretty simple, playing two downstrokes for each chord in the
just like the intro. Chords for each verse are the same.
There is a live version on YouTube which doesn't sound the same, so I figured this out
the album. Also it doesn't always sound like he's playing Barre chords so he might be
a different tuning, but the chords will always be the same; you can play it in standard
with these chords and it will sound right.

Ab Eb
If I convinced you to finally come with me
Db Ab
I'd never believe that you'd stay
Ab Fm
'cause your mother's always guilting you
Db Ab
Or your dad stands in your way
Ab Eb
So you stay for your job or the two headed slob
Db Ab
As his little head used you for play
Ab Fm Db
Though his big head can't remember not to call you his other girlfriend's
Ab
name
Fm
You say forget me
Eb
Forget me
Db
Forget me
Ab
Forget me
Fm Eb
As soon as I finally try
Db
You won't let me
Ab
You won't let me
( Fm Eb Db Ab ) x2
After much begging and pleading
You finally agree to meet me to talk
If you promise not to bring up what's his name
I'll promise not to show up drunk
What a surprise I get stuck in your eyes
And start twisting your arm to come home
I'm tired of being the clown in the crowd
Get 'em laughing but go home alone
You say forget me
Forget me
Forget me
Forget me
As soon as I finally try
You won't let me
You won't let me
Six months past the time you said I'd passed my prime
Who thought I'd find somebody new
A sweetheart who always agrees with me
Who I always compare to you
She wants too much time
I can barely unwind
I don't know what the hell I should do
I'll probably just feed her a line
And then string her along
That's what I learned from you
You say forget me
Forget me
Forget me
Forget me
As soon as I finally try
You won't let me
You won't let me
You say forget me
Forget me
Forget me
Forget me
As soon as I finally try
You won't let me
You won't let me
